Its been said that the Gallo brothers, as young recruits, worked under policy "banker" Frank Abbatemarco in a vast policy-numbers operation he ran and controlled in South Brooklyn, Bedford-Stuyvesant and other parts of the borough. But that doesn't mean that Frank was necessarily a 'capodecina.'

He may have just been a top-ranked wealthy older soldier that they came up under.

My understanding is that the resident capodecina in charge of the overall Red Hook-Gowanus section was another old-timer by the name of Enrico (Harry) Fontana. (this is also what I personally believe to be have been true)
