0715 Zulu (UTC) in US time zones

Military and aviation schedules give times in Zulu — Coordinated Universal Time — so that everyone works from one clock. When a message says 0715Z, this is the local time across the United States:

Time zoneStandard timeDaylight time
Eastern (EST / EDT)2:15 AM — R3:15 AM — Q
Central (CST / CDT)1:15 AM — S2:15 AM — R
Mountain (MST / MDT)12:15 AM — T1:15 AM — S
Pacific (PST / PDT)11:15 PM (previous day) — U12:15 AM — T
Alaska (AKST / AKDT)10:15 PM (previous day) — V11:15 PM (previous day) — U
Hawaii (HST)9:15 PM (previous day) — WNo daylight time

The letter after each time is that zone’s military time-zone letter: Eastern standard time is R (Romeo, UTC−5), so 0715Z is 0215R. Daylight time runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November; Hawaii and most of Arizona stay on standard time all year.

0715 in everyday use

  • 0715 is early-shift territory. Many 12-hour shifts in hospitals and plants change over at 0700 and 1900, and 8-hour shifts often start at 0600 or 0700, so times like 0715 are common on rosters and badge records.
  • Because the hour is below 10, the military form keeps a leading zero: 0715, never 715.
