Jimmy Calandra A Bath Avenue Story

My name is Jimmy Calandra , I was once a member of the infamous 'Bath Ave Crew' located in Bensonhurst Brooklyn NY. 
My Neighborhood was a recruitment center for the Five Crime Families of New York City. These wise guys watch you as your growing up and look for kids they can mold into thieves, crooks, and murderers. In time they recruit us and teach us the trade of a wiseguy. As your coming up and committing crimes, these men put you on record with them and they teach you how to earn. In return they introduce you to a circle of Underworld crime figures that is the Mafia. They teach you that we are responsible for each others actions and that they are your Brothers, and if they call you in the middle of the night "you come with no questions asked! And someday you too will be a Made Member of our Family. Just be patient and do what you are told "Even if it means Killing your Best Friend that you grew up with all of your Life.   "Memories & Redemption"
