Military time, also known as the 24-hour clock, is a system the military uses to eliminate confusion between morning and afternoon hours, since the armed forces are in operation around the clock.

To convert from the 12 hour clock to the 24 hour clock is easy - you just need to add 12 to the hours in the day after midday.
