[GreenKeys] Military Time -vs- UTC

[tony.podrasky]

Hello Everyone;

A long, long, time ago - when I was doing "things" and "stuff"
we used the ICAO military time - Alpha thru Zulu suffix
instead of GMT.

I did come across we military website that listed the
time from 0000 to 2400, or 25 "times". The reason was that
the beginning of a day starts at 0000 and the very end of
the day, when referenced, ends at 2400. Makes sense.

I went to the following URL

http://http://www.militaryspot.com/resources/military_time/

There, I found something interesting: UTC has 24 timezones
but ZULU time has 25 time zones - but unlike the 0000 - 2400,
there is no duplicate entry.

It took me a while to figure that one out - but I finally did.

OK - who knows off the top of his head "why that is".

      who can analyze the chart and figure out "why it is"?

Just a little something to take everyone's mind
off of IBM Selectric Type Balls :-)

UE,
