Here Ed Scarpo states that Joey Gallo was a capo. I've seen it stated here that he was only a soldier before the rebellion and I've heard from another (rather dubious TV documentary) that he was in Perciso's crew. Is there any definitive idea about that?
Never a captain. It looks like the Gallo brothers, before the rebellion, were part of Harry Fontana´s crew. When the war broke out, they were considered persona non grata. After the war, Colombo brought back Larry Gallo and a couple of other rebels back into the fold and put them in his own crew. Carmine Persico was member of the same crew. Joey Gallo, however, refused to be brought back. It also looks like Persico took over this crew when Colombo was bumped up. But I don´t know if Larry Gallo and the rebels stayed with Persico. Many soldiers were moved from left to right, changing crew affiliations, almost all the time.
