the time the day

Did you know ___(the time/the day/the month) during your 5 year captivity?

What's the right noun? Please let me know if you don't understand the question. I'm having trouble explaining right now. Give me some time to think.

Thanks.

I'm certainly not clear on where you are going with this one, New2. Probably the most expected: Were you aware of the date during your 5-year captivity?

A non-elegant way of asking would be "Do you know what time of the day, what day of the week during your captivity? (Interviewing a rescued hostage who has spent the last five years in captivity by a rebel group)

It is clearer now? I still can't think of a way to explain what I want.

I'd add to MM's:
Were you aware of the time and date during your 5-year captivity?
