    military time is NOT 24 hour time! Stop mixing the two.

    military time doesn’t use minutes and hours but rather merges the two - 16:45 becomes 1645, and so on.

    24 hour time still distincts minutes and hours.

      100% this. I was going to post what you said as well. But I will add that in the US, if you use 24 hour time, most people just refer to it as military time. If you tell them the difference they don’t really care.

      In the US 24h is virtually never used in a civil context, but in scientific, engineering, and medical contexts it is ubiquitous.

      Valid, but hardly deserving of significant argument. Actually considered that in my original post but decided that it gets the point across. I now regret the whole thing, ppl take it way too seriously.

      Peace, out.

      TV time and military time don’t even use 24 hours. You can have a TV show that goes from 23:30 to 25:15 (25>24, in 24h it would be 01:15).

      I imagine those who call 24h “military time” also say “I’ll be home from work on Friday at 4100 AM”, which makes about the same amount of sense.
