      <description>Two years ago, Knox County native Clarence Enlow was a Marine Corps staff sergeant with a decade of military service under his belt.  The combat instructor had faced deployment to Iraq—kicking in doors, providing security and traveling in convoys—and planned to remain a Marine until he retired after 23 years of service.  Then a training accident changed everything, although Enlow didn’t know it at the time.&lt;br/&gt;

Brian Antonio, program executive officer for the Littoral Combat Ships program, on the system and its capabilities.
