Thank you Dob_Peppino.

On Frank Corbo. Growing up he was close to members of the Genovese and Lucchese crime family. Ultimately James Plumeri joined the Lucchese family and Frank followed suit. He was also close to Al and Joe Sica who were Lucchese members before transferring to Los Angeles. The pictures might be on here, but there are a few pictures of Frank Corbo with James Plumeri and the Dio brothers in stages of the years. When both Frank and James lived in Florida, Corbo served as his driver off and on and they usually ate together twice a week. Corbo spent more time with Plumeri than any other member in Florida. Corbo did meet with Erra, Coppola, and Salerno in the Genovese crime family while down in Florida, but he spent more time with members of the Lucchese crime family. Harry Stromgberg a Philadelphia criminal who had plenty of connections, went into business with Tommy Lucchese, I actually think it was his brother Joe Lucchese, in the garment business. He met James Plumeri in the late 1940s, through Palermo and Corbo, and Plumeri put him in contact with Frank Corbo saying Corbo was a soldier in his crew according to an informant somewhat close to Stromgberg. Corbo knew bosses, Bufalino, Ricca, Accardo, Giancana, Lucchese, Anastasia, Costello, Genovese, Ida, Civello, Dragna, and Trafficante to name some. His later years he would spend more time with Bufalino, Trafficante, and Tony Salerno after James Plumeri was killed in 1971. Corbo would pass away in 1976.
