Hi:

I would like to get the utc timestamp, 24-hr clock (military time), without the time zone suffix.

Below commands were run nearly at the same time...

sqfdev=> select now()::timestamp(0)  ;
          now
---------------------
  2018-07-11 15:27:12
(1 row)

...then immediately...

sqfdev=> select now()::timestamp(0) at time zone 'utc' ;
         timezone
------------------------
  2018-07-11 11:27:12-04
(1 row)


15:27:12 makes sense (it's a bout 3:30 in the afternoon EST).
11:27:12 doesn't make sense.  UTC is 5 hours ahead.  I would have expected either 20:27 (if it stuck to military time, which I want), or 08:27 (P.M., non-military time)

And I want to get rid of the -04 suffix.

Is there a way to do this ?

test=> show TimeZone;
  TimeZone
------------
 US/Pacific
(1 row)

test=> select now();
              now
-------------------------------

2018-07-11 12:44:57.757347-07

(1 row)




test=> select (now() at time zone 'UTC')::timestamp(0);
timezone

---------------------

2018-07-11 19:45:00

(1 row)




Thanks !
