TIL Zulu is another word for 24-hour time

There's a subtle difference. You often need to reference a time zone when using 24-hour time. As in "it's 14:09 EDT." Zulu time is always used in 24-hour format and is always a reference to UTC. As in 18:09 Zulu.

Both are using the 24-hour format.

one reason I do not default to UTC or Zulu is that it doesn't account for daylight savings outside of manually adding 'UTC-5' or whatever zone you're in relative to daylight savings; so I just go with 24-hour notation with zone - 1414 EDT
