Military time FAQ
What is 1300 in military time?

How do I convert military time to standard time?
For 0000–1159, read it as AM (0930 is 9:30 AM). For 1200–2359, subtract 12 hours from the hour part and read it as PM (1845 is 6:45 PM). 0000 is midnight and 1200 is noon.
Is military time the same as 24-hour time?
Almost. The 24-hour clock writes a colon (14:30); military time writes four digits with no colon (1430) and is spoken as “fourteen thirty”. The underlying times are identical.
Is there a 2400 in military time?
Midnight is normally written 0000 at the start of a day. 2400 is sometimes used to mean the end of a day, so 2400 on Monday is the same instant as 0000 on Tuesday.
