I read further into the book, and Henry called him capo. I find it very strange that Gus Russo called him boss, but Henry called him capo. I researched the Lucchese family as well, and found that Paulie was never boss, just a capo. I even found a picture of the real Paulie, something I'd never been able to find. They got a surveillance picture of Paulie in the book, but it's from far away, so you can't really tell what he looks like. However, I don't think there's any known images of Tommy De Simone. Anyway, I thought I'd share the picture of Paulie with the rest of you.



I found the image at FreeInfoSociety.com . It's amazing how much info they got on there. They got a whole short biography on Paulie, and Jimmie Burke.
