At the Battle of Trafalgar, Lord Nelson and Hardy were walking around the deck of HMS Victory.
Hardy says to Lord Nelson, “My lord, I’ve been meaning to ask you on a number of occasions, whenever we go into battle, you wear your red tunic. Why is that?” Nelson answers, “Well Hardy, it’s like this. If, in the heat of the battle I’m wounded, the colour of my tunic, being red, will camouflage the blood, and the men won’t be afraid. and will therefore continue to fight.” Hardy replies, “What a damn good idea My Lord. I think I’ll wear my brown trousers.”

Now that's good common sense on both parts.My guess is Lord Nelson had brown nickers to go with that red tunic.
