Members & WW1

Would anybody be interested in compiling a list of members and associates who served in WW1? It’s a topic that barely gets any attention and so far I’ve only been able to find two.

Re: Riccobene-Scarfo War 1982-1983

Yes it was from Blood and Honor. Faffy and Joey were drinking at a bar near where veterans stadium used to be. A few of the Riccobene crew members were outside, Faffy had his cousin bring him a gun and when they walked out pointed the gun and the Riccobene crew and said we’re leaving here alive. Do...
