       %V     week number of year with Monday as first day of week (01..53)

       %Z     time zone (e.g., EDT), or nothing if no time zone is determinable

       By default, date pads numeric fields with zeroes.  GNU date recognizes the  follow-
       ing modifiers between ‘%’ and a numeric directive.

              ‘-’ (hyphen) do not pad the field ‘_’ (underscore) pad the field with spaces
