Hey guys I am currently watching "Mobsters: Roy DeMeo" and I had a question on his older brother.

In the documentary, Albert DeMeo says his uncle (Roy's Brother, Anthony Demeo) defended his entire "battalion he was in charge of" that was surrounded by the enemy by grabbing a machine gun and charging the enemy. Cool story, but to be in charge of a battalion in the US Army you have to be a Lt. Colonel or Full Bird Colonel (That's one rank under General, an officer). Was that a misprint or typo in the documentary, or was his brother an officer? Or maybe NCO Master Sergeant (E-8) or Sergeant Major (E-9)? Any info would be appreciated.

I'm going off of Youtube dude and it says "DeMeo". Plus I'm sure everyone else knows who I am talking about without being smart about it. Don't carry feelings from the political threads into this because I hurt them, I'm curious on an answer as to whether the guy's rank was Officer or NCO.

If you do not have the answer please don't try to derail an honest thread to the more educated posters.

I feel ya, his response was wack I noticed. Everybody knows who Demeo is..and hes also right and its definitely not Dimaio because it just isn't..?

This him?

Thank you DonM, I definitely appreciate it!

It goes back a few months because apparently I am from a different political party Thanks Extortion!

ive read where roy demeo had a brother who was killed in korea, its written about in murder machine, but, it doesn't say he was a hero, just a PFC and certainly no leader of a battalion.
