A ship captain is walking on board when a soldier rushes to him and exclaims, “An enemy ship is approaching us!”

The captain replies calmly, “Go get my red shirt.”

The soldier gets the shirt for the captain. The enemy ship comes in and heavy rounds of fire are exchanged. Finally, they win.

The soldier says, “Congratulations sir, but why the red shirt?”

The captain replies, “If I got injured, my blood shouldn’t be seen, as I didn’t want my men to lose hope.”

Just then, another soldier runs up and says, “Sir, we just spotted another twenty enemy ships!”

The captain calmly replies, “Go bring my yellow pants.”
