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. Black Bill Tocco of Detroit served in the Army but as to what his role was I’ve no idea. Michael Abbatemarco was a Frankie Yale crew member and brother of Frank Abbatemarco, a Profaci capo who served in France with the Sixteenth Engineers and came home in April 1919. Anybody have any more they would like to add?
