A battleship had been at sea on maneuvers in heavy weather for several days. The captain, who was concerned about the deteriorating conditions, stayed on the bridge so that he could keep an eye on all activities. One night, shortly after dark, [the fog was getting even thicker] the lookout on the bridge suddenly shouted, \u2018A light, captain, bearing on the starboard bow.\u2019
\u2018Is it steady or moving astern?\u2019 the captain asked.
The lookout confirmed that it was steady, which meant that the battleship was apparently on a dangerous collision course with the other ship.
The captain then called to the signalman, \u2018Signal that ship: \u201cWe are on a collision course. Advise you change course 20 degrees north.\u201d\u2019
Back came the response from the other ship: \u2018You change course 20 degrees south.\u2019
Annoyed at the arrogance of the response, the captain said, \u2018Send: \u201cI am a captain, change course 20 degrees north.\u201d\u2019
\u2018I am a seaman second class,\u2019 came the reply, \u2018you had still better change course 20 degrees south.\u2019
By this time, the captain was furious. He shouted, \u2018Send: \u201cI am a battleship. Change course 20 degrees north.\u201d\u2019
Back came the flashing light: \u2018I am a lighthouse.\u2019
The captain changed course. (Tales for Coaching, 133)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
