Red Shirted Captain

Once upon a time a British Navy captain was on the high seas when the lookout on the crow's nest shouted "pirate ship ahead!!!"

The captain then turned to his first mate and said "get me my red shirt!"

The mate got the shirt and the captain put it on. A battle ensued and the British ship won. After the battle the first mate asked the captain "why the red shirt?"

The captain replied "I wore it so if I got shot or injured the men wouldn't see the blood and they would fight harder."

All of the sudden the lookout yelled "20 pirate ships coming!!!"

The captain looked at his first mate and said bring me my brown pants".
