Joe Bonanno wasnt forced into retirement. Many informants, FBI agents and newspaper articles attest to an active Arizona faction of the Bonanno family, which was involved in some blue collar, mostly white collar crimes long after the Bananas War, almost well into the early 80's.

And Bonanno & Galante's relationship has become VERY disputable. There are questions of if he was ever even Bonannos Underboss or moreso of a rogue capo, or capo with a very powerful crew. I'll have to go refresh myself on this, by reading through the Bonanno succession thread on another forum. But Joe Bonanno may have not been lying when he said on 60 minutes that he didnt even know Galante all that well.
