One day two foreign military men arrived to serve the Russian Tsar Peter. They were dressed in luxurious kaftans. Peter appreciated the beauty of their uniforms, but noted that it would not be easy for them to endure different weather conditions in them. This angered the guests. Thus began a dispute between the admiral, the general and a simple Russian soldier. The one who can withstand both cold and heat in his attire is destined to win.
