BTW, folks, it's disdain.

Well said.

The term wanna-be is negative.  I cannot think of a single positive use of it.

Besides which I looked at the numbers during our recent region conference.  About 30-40% of our members at all ranks are veterans.  To me, that's a BTDT status.  But you don't know who is who.

RM is quite aware that the term is negative, that's why he uses it. ::)

Well, some folks still haven't gotten spell check figured out, or they don't have it available on their "posting device".

This may have been mentioned already, but in addition to toxic leadership, toxic personalities in followers can send a unit up in smoke just as quickly.
