If 3 black firefighters had been involved in a historic event does any one think someone could get away with changing their monument in this same way? Jessie & Al would be heard howling to the edge of space! ***YGD?

If the goal is to reproduce the photo, yes, it is lame to change it. But if the goal is to make a statue honoring the firefighters, then it is reasonable to pick a few races. I would have to look at the photo. If the flag and the bodies are in the same position (I suspect they are), then it should not be changed.
