'''And Then There Was the Time...''' is a short story by [[Mark O'Green]] that was first published in the 1988 anthology [[Shrapnel (anthology)|Shrapnel]].

No detailed dates are given, but references to a discussion of the Kurita pilot with famous [[James Doogan]] of [[Wolf's Dragoons]] suggest the event to take place during or after the Dragoons' employment with the [[Draconis Combine]], i.e. between [[3023]] and [[3028]].

== Plot Summary ==
While a ''[[Slayer]]'' [[aerospace fighter]] pilot boasts about his exploits, namely a dogfight with the ''[[Stuka]]'' of famous [[Karl Stephens]] and how he ''could'' have shot him down, the rather bored and distracted thoughts of his female companion provide a stark contrast to his story.
