Johnny - That's a very good post. Throw in a few more names like Gus Alex, and others at different times, and you have a very good description of what I've read and been told.

There are lots of stories about specifics relative to The Outfit, but paragraphs 3,4,5 and 6 of your post, pretty well sums up how I understand they operated. I also believe that by including others in the decision- making process is what made The Outfit so strong.

Results were important, not titles.

Thanks for the very good analysis. Well stated.

I need a jacket !!!
