WILMINGTON, Del. — A Delaware Army National Guard unit whose members 
include the son of Democratic vice presidential hopeful Sen. Joe Biden 
will report for deployment to Iraq in October, officials said Wednesday.

Beau Biden, 39, the attorney general for the state of Delaware, serves 
with the brigade as a captain and a military lawyer in the Judge Advocate 
General's Corps.

An Oct. 3 departure ceremony is scheduled for the 261st Signal Brigade. 
The brigade will travel to Fort Bliss, Texas, for training before being 
deployed to Iraq, where it is expected to remain for about a year, said 
Delaware National Guard spokesman Col. Len Gratteri.

The brigade will provide command, control and communications support for 
troops in Iraq.
