 "Joe Biden's son discharged from Navy over cocaine use")
US Vice President Joe Biden's son, who was discharged this year from the US Navy after reportedly testing positive for cocaine, has expressed regret over his actions.
According to FOX News and as reported by the Wall Street Journal, junior Biden was discharged from duty in February this year because he failed a drug test after reporting to his unit at Navy Public Affairs Support Element East in Norfolk, Va.
Biden, 44, said that he was "embarrassed" and "deeply regretted" his actions that led to his administrative discharge.
Biden, who joined the military in 2013, said that it was the honour of his life to have served in the US Navy.
Meanwhile, Vice President Biden spoke about his son's decision to join the Navy late in life at the American Legion's Salute to Heroes Inaugural Ball in 2013, joking that his son's decision was a result of poor judgment, the report added.
