I believe that Paterno crew was a separate crew from the Belleville crew that was taken over by Bobby when Gotti bumped him up. I believe the Paterno was more of a Newark Downneck crew. They targeted trucking & warehousing around the port and construction. They competed with the Westside crews downneck and worked with the Decavs in construction specifically Local 342 of the Laborers Union in Newark as several crew members were members or former members of that local. The Gambino's controlled that local. I could be wrong. But I think its a separate crew from Bobbys. Michael Mandaglia took over for Paterno in 85 when he died. Anthony Proto was a Gambino construction guy in that crew as well. The Gambino were once a force in NJ's construction unions. Not so much anymore. Below is a list of Gambino Locals that they controlled in the 80s in NJ . Most of it is all gone now. They have some influence in the Operator Engineer union in Springfield still. Enough to get family of made members jobs who have zero experience operating machinery... lol
