(38,109 posts)It's not displayed. We have a rule -
He doesn't display pictures of his Uncle Nicola or family hanging out with Beni . . .
I don't display pictures of my Grampa with General Eisenhower as his 'body' guard at the end of WW2.
But - two generations after those men were enemies - a granddaughter and nephew got married.
The Gio got extra points from the VERY old men in his family for 'Stealing One Back whose father was an Army Officer'.
A little snark about how the American GIs took home all of the best Italian girls. So him stealing a US Army Captain's daughter 'back' was a really big deal to them.

One of the many things creators got right before it happened.
This episode was released on December 11, 2005 years before Trump ran for President.
