He started as an enlisted man in anti-aircraft and rose to second lieutenant in the 78th Infantry Division. He was a member of the 78th during the Battle of the Bulge. His final assignment was as a first lieutenant in military government.[2]

From 1946 to 1947, Constantino once again served as town solicitor. From 1947 to 1951 he was a member of the Massachusetts Civil Service Commission.[2] From 1951 to 1954 he represented the 11th Worcester District in the Massachusetts House of Representatives.[1] In 1954, Constantino was the Republican nominee for Massachusetts State Auditor. He lost to incumbent Thomas J. Buckley 59% to 40%.[3]
