AN FDNY lieutenant immortalized in a photo at Ground Zero has filed a complaint against the head of the fraternal group representing black firefighters, sources told the Daily News.
Lt. Daniel McWilliams, who is white, filed the equal employment opportunity complaint after he appeared as part of the ceremonial unit at a memorial service Nov. 19.
McWilliams was one of two white members of the six-person ceremonial crew that day. He did not particpate in the service, sources said, and later complained about Vulcan President Regina Wilson.
It was not clear what McWilliams and Wilson did or said to prompt the disagreement. The FDNY confirmed that a complaint had been filed but would not discuss it further.
"The matter is under investigation," said Jim Long, a FDNY spokesman.
