UTC = Coordinated Universal Time, or Zulu
PST = Pacific Standard Time (UTC - 8 hours)
ALDT = Alaskan Daylight Time (UTC - 8 hours)
PDT = Pacific Daylight Time (UTC - 7 hours)
MST = Mountain Standard Time (UTC - 7 hours)
MDT = Mountain Daylight Time (UTC - 6 hours)
CST = Central Standard Time (UTC - 6 hours)
CDT = Central Daylight Time (UTC - 5 hours)

EDT = Eastern Daylight Time (UTC - 4 hours)

EXAMPLE- 2400(aka 12 midnight) ZULU in Eastern standard time is 1700(aka 5PM)
-ZULU time minus 5 hours---- So if its 3PM(1500Hrs) EST(Eastern standard time) you simply add 5 hours to that to find ZULU time which would be 2000Hrs.
