The Crew
Stephen Eller
​
"The Don" President of Upstate Rogues LLC. Stephen spent most of his childhood running around the halls at South Greenville FD where his father was a Lieutenant for many years. Stephen got his start in 2011 in the Metropolis of Belton, SC. Privileged to work with some incredible officers and mentors that molded him into the man and fireman he is today. Stephen currently works at the "Inn Place to Be" the City of Fountain Inn Fire Department. His passion is breaking down doors and tearing up locks because he doesn't have the skill set to fix anything. He's another believer in proactive ground ladder work and truck work. He's also a chicken lover. Zaxby's considers him an honorary customer because they know what he wants as soon as he pulls into the parking lot.
Casey Clinkscales
"Tech Guy" 15 year Career and Volunteer Fire Service Veteran. Casey still loves the job like a Rookie on his first day. Despite being in the military he found a way to join the local volunteer house until his departure from the Army. Casey is currently assigned to Engine 171 as a Captain with the Irmo Fire District in Columbia, SC. When he's not running around in circles, you can find him researching something. Casey is always willing to influence who he can, when he can, while he can, spreading the virus of pride and preparation or in other words the "Art of Firemanship." But he's also a family man, father of 2 boys and 1 girl who love the fire service just as much as anyone.
Brandon Stroud
​
"Can't Get Right" began his fire service journey in early 2008 with the Townville Volunteer Fire Department in Anderson County. It didn't take long for his passion for the fire service to grow. In 2010 he began working for the City of Anderson Fire Department where he is currently a Lieutenant. He's an Engine junkie who loves learning the ins and outs of Nozzles, Hose, and all other aspects that go along with Engine work. When not working, he loves to spend time with his family that include a wife and 2 young boys, one of which seems to be an up and coming Engine Junkie. When he finally retires, he'll probably be that old guy coming to your kids fire department selling them fire apparatus.
