How could I convert this GMT time to EDT?

index="wineventlog" host=opdc* Account_Name=*test_user EventCode=4624 
| makemv Account_Name
| mvexpand Account_Name
| eval day=strftime(_time, "%d-%m-%y") 
| join type=left src_ip 
    [ search index=ad source=addnsscan earliest=-12h@h latest=now 
    | rename data as src_ip, name as hostname
    | fields src_ip, hostname] 
| stats earliest(_time) AS earliest by Account_Name, src_ip, hostname, day 
| eval earliest=strftime(earliest,"%d/%m/%Y %H.%M.%S %Z")

Try the updated answer. Fixed a typo in first strptime in eval for offset.
