[10] [11] Biden's unit was activated to deploy to Iraq on October 3, 2008, and sent to Fort Bliss, Texas , for pre-deployment training, [12] the day after his father participated in the 2008 presidential campaign's only vice presidential debate . His father was 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." [13] Biden traveled to Washington, D.C. , from Iraq in January 2009 for the presidential inauguration and his father's swearing-in as Vice President, [14] then returned to Iraq. [15] Biden received a visit at Camp Victory from his father on July 4, 2009. [16] Biden returned from Iraq in September 2009, his yearlong stint on active duty complete. [17] Biden had announced that during his deployment he would continue to actively serve as Delaware's Attorney General by working in conjunction with his office's senior staff in Delaware, [18] although a member of his unit related Biden saying he had turned over most of his attorney general work to his deputy so as to focus on his duties in Iraq. [19] For his service in Iraq, Biden was awarded the Bronze Star Medal . [20] After Biden's death, Army Chief of Staff Raymond Odierno delivered the eulogy at his funeral and presented a posthumous Legion of Merit for his service in the Delaware National Guard, stating "Beau Biden possessed the traits I have witnessed in only the greatest leaders." [21] He was also posthumously presented with The Delaware Conspicuous Service Cross, which is "awarded for heroism, meritorious service and outstanding achievement." [22]
