Long ago, there lived a sailor named Captain Bravo. He was
a manly, man’s man, who showed no fear when facing his
enemies. One day, while sailing the Seven Seas, his lookout spotted a
pirate ship, and the crew became frantic.
Captain Bravo bellowed, “Bring me my red shirt!” The first
mate quickly retrieved the captain’s red shirt, and while wearing the
brightly colored frock, the Captain led his crew into battle and defeated
the pirates.
That evening, all the men sat around on the deck recounting
the day’s triumph. One of them asked the Captain, "Sir, why did you
call for your red shirt before battle?
The captain replied, “If I am wounded in the attack, the shirt
will not show my blood. Thus, you men will continue to fight,
not afraid.”
All of the men sat in awe, and marveled at the courage of such
a manly man’s man.
As dawn came the next morning, the lookout spotted not one,
not two, but TEN pirate ships approaching. The crew stared in worshipful
silence at the captain and waited for his usual orders.
Captain Bravo gazed with steely eyes upon the vast armada
arrayed against his ship, turned and calmly shouted,
“Get me my brown pants!”
…all hail Cap Bravo…good one…:k:
