It was in the 1800's. There was a wooden warship out on the ocean. The guy up in the crow's nest yelled down to the captain, "One enemy ship on the horizon!" The captain yelled to the first mate, "Bring me... my red shirt." So the first mate did, and the battle started. Not a single sailor from their ship was lost. After a while the first mate asked the captain, "Why did you want me to bring you your red shirt?" The captain said, "That way, if I'm wounded, the will blend in and my crew won't notice and will keep fighting." The next day, the guy up in the crow's nest yells down to the captain, "Twenty enemy ships on the horizon!" The captain yelled to the first mate, "Bring me... my brown pants."
