Spc. Adam Lafferty, (right) son of Tracy Reuss and Lemo Lafferty of Marshall, is home on two weeks' leave from service as a cavalry scout with the Army's 1-4 Cavs Raiders B-Troop stationed in Baghdad. Lafferty, a 2004 Marshall graduate, sat down with the Chronicle at his mother's home Tuesday to talk about how his troop is working to capture high level terrorist targets, the good the U.S. troops are doing for the Iraqi people and the shocking culture of the war torn neighborhoods in which he lives and works. He rejoins his troop next week for an 11-month continuation of the U.S. troop surge. See Saturday's Chronicle to learn what he had to say about the U.S. prospects for leaving Iraq and his thoughts on from where the terrorists are getting their weapons.
