The term “am” stands for antemeridian which is Latin, meaning “before the middle” or before noon. The term “pm” stands for postmeridian, also Latin, meaning after noon.

Zulu (also referred to as GMT or UTC) is the local time in Greenwich, England.
If you are in San Francisco and it is 1300Z (Zulu)time, then it is 0500 PST where you are (S.F.). Meanwhile, it is 2200, or 10 p.m. JST (Japan Standard Time) in Tokyo.

Sir,

I am confused on how to convert from local time to zulu in another country.
For example:

If zulu time in San Francisco (USA)is 1300 what is the zulu time in Tokyo (Japan)? Is there a formular that may be used to calculate?

Respectfully,
