Biden is a member of the Delaware Army National Guard, and serves as a Captain in the Judge Advocate General's office. (Going to look for some soldier to prosecute!) In August 2007, he received notice that his unit would be deployed to Iraq some time in 2008. He is officially scheduled to deploy on October 3, 2008, the day after his father participates in the campaign's only vice presidential debate. His father is on the record as saying, "I don't want him going. But I tell you what, I don't want my grandson or my granddaughters going back in 15 years, and so how we leave makes a big difference

Good for Joe. Maybe now he’ll think twice about undermining our military for cheap political advantage.
God’s blessings on his family.

Isn’t that exactly what McCain said that the debate??

Sending over the JAG to prosecute Track after his first fire fight. The question is “was this planned all along or just recently arranged?” They cynic in me says the latter is true.

This is interesting in regards to a suit filed in Delaware, which led to Bill Clinton's being fired from his job with InfoGroup. When I noticed the suit was filed in Delaware, I questioned it because Biden's son is Attorney General. Now I see he's headed for Iraq.
Bill Clinton fired from InfoGROUP job, effective today.

Glad it wasn't just me.
Beau Biden, ... is Delaware's attorney general.
And why am I also cynical that this guy will be safe and snug in a JAG office...trying to find charges to bring against REAL troops; and ways to release prisoners?

I dont hink I will go there. Anyone who heads to iraq in service to our country repub or dem will get my admiration. If he proves to be what you are cynical about, then I say let him have it, until I thank him for his service.
To: TheRedSoxWinThePennant
Nice sentiment. Not very realistic, but nice.
Me; I’ll wait until there really is service to thank him for, at which point he can mutually thank me for mine.

come on this free republic. We dont dis people on their motives for joining the entirely voluntary military and being sent to harms way. That is a du tactic. If he has alterior motives then he will be taken care of in due time.
To: BGHater
Frankly speaking — I NEVER observed a JAG Captain in a foxhole....
Perhaps when the shells started landing close to the Saigon whorehouses - a few JAG Captains may have hopped out of the sack and into a bunker.....
But foxhole -— I seriously doubt it...
Beau is the Attorney General of Delaware - an elected post..
Yes, he is a politician - following in the teat sucking steps of his worthless father.
One can be sure he will have more “cover” than did Algore during his ticket punching “tour” in Vietnam....
I hope I’m wrong, but I doubt it.
