Not this again :) GMT (was) the world standard reference point from 1884
and the Washington Conference (or thereabouts).

For most purposes GMT +0000 == UTC (or UCT if you're Francophone) ==
Zulu time (26 time zones to cope with half hour offsets - ?? go from A-Z??)
== "military time" (if you're US military) and quite possibly NATO time.

This fails with leap seconds, potentially, and also TAI astronomical time
seems to be its own animal.

Does this help?
