Tony Provenzano, Lenny Strollo. Tony Pro was a skipper. I thought this thread was specific to soldiers? Because if we're counting captains, that changes everything. Big time. Was he a capo? I thought so too, then I was told that in the indictments he is listed as a soldier, and it was the media that made him a capo. I am not sure who said that, maybe somebody on the Black Hand forum. I don't know about indictments or what his FBI file says, Dwalin. I don't really read that stuff. But I'm quite certain that he was a captain .

I didn't think he had his own crew under him. I thought he was just big with the Teamsters. Maybe somebody direct with a boss without his own crew of made guys working under him but still with more power than a "normal" soldier. I know his brother Nunzio was also made. If we're going by official documents, we're not likely to get a cut and dry answer because the guy has been dead for twenty five years. And when you couple that with the fact that he was in such a secretive family to begin with, you're never going to get a straight answer. But just going by the people I knew who were around during his era, they all referred to him---to a man---as a skipper. But everyone is free to draw their own conclusion .

I respect your opinion as much as any government documents. That's a compliment btw

That's a compliment btw Right back at ya, Snakes . I don't know how guys like you and Ivy and Hairy do it. I'd NEVER have the patience to go through all of those documents, make spreadsheets, etc. You guys are a lot smarter than I am. I'm just getting old, so I've picked up a few things. I think the eggheads call it wisdom or something like that .

My daughters made me do it years ago. They told me the scraps were a desperate attempt to hold on to the '70s .

He was in the wrong family. Paul Castellano would have loved this guy. All being said, he's a lucky boy. He served very little time in prison in proportion to his crimes. http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/the-mobro-4000More on the Mobro 4000 scandal and Avellino's involvement in it.
I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.
