WASHINGTON — A Delaware Army National Guard spokesman says the son of Vice President-elect Joseph Biden will watch the inauguration in D.C. — although his unit is in Iraq.

Lt. Col. Len Gratteri says Capt. Beau Biden began a temporary assignment at the Pentagon Thursday. Details about the assignment or how long it will last weren’t immediately available.

The assignment will allow him to use personal leave time so the former attorney general of Delaware can see the inauguration of his father and President-elect Barack Obama.

After the inauguration, he is scheduled to return to Iraq where his unit, the Delaware National Guard 261st Signal Brigade, is stationed.
