Bonanno 100 - 120 made men
Colombo less than 100

Philadelphia about 50 half of them active
Patriarca 30/40 made men
Chicago Outfit 30/40 made men
Decavalcante 30/40
Detroit Partnership almost 30


Pennisi said they had seven crews of 7-8 soldiers and capo, including admin, yes that's about 70, but I think this is guys on the streets. Every other estimate has put the Luccheses at around 100 guys and including members in prison, these figures make sense. I can't believe there's only 70 made guys total, that would be less than the Colombos.
