Tripp...Peglar ...and the other members
appreciate all this info... and getting back to me... never really knew all the exact circumstances of Victor's downing and capture ... I'll pass this along to the other members of our family...
I just traveled back up to Brooklyn(NY) and have been away for over three weeks after learning of my older cousin's sudden passing.. that would be Victor Perrotta's sister .. she was 82 yrs old .. went into the hospital with a bad back.. sent to a rehab/nursing home for in-house rehab.. contracted pneumonia ...sent to another hospital and into a coma and passed away.. all that within a 2-3 week time period...she was a 'pretty healthy' lady for her age before this.. Victor has one remaining sister left... 87 yrs old.. who we stayed with while up in Brooklyn recently...
again thanx very much...and any other info greatly appreciated..
p.s. just for the record... Victor's father Vito ( a/k/a Vic) Perrotta home address 497 Sheepshead Bay Rd Brooklyn, NY.. that house along with our entire old neighborhood in that Coney Island section of Brooklyn is not there anymore as it was replaced by multiple 20 story
high- rise co-op apartment buildings in the early 60's built by Fred Trump ( Donald Trump's father) and another developer..
