I has mixed emotions about this. the mob boys were nasty but the communists were worse. like WWII, do you back the evil Nazis or the evil commies? a fair amount of people suggested 'let the dictators fight it out'. Pearl Harbor changed that.
so I guess some mafioso performed some service in WWII. well, good, but they're still bad guys. I guess the philosophy was like Churchill, who said he'd deal with the devil to defeat Hitler.
