A Gold Star family recalled in 2019 their “horrible experience” with then-Vice President Joe Biden at Dover Air Force Base during the dignified transfer of their son’s remains in November 2016.
During the dignified transfer, Biden was pessimistic about the war and told the family he didn’t know why U.S. troops were in Afghanistan, where their son died fighting. Biden was also perceived by the family as “creepy” after he told the late service member’s wife she was “too pretty” to be a widow.
