24 hour clock reduces the lame “am or pm?!??” Confusion.

Technically military time is different from the 24 hour clock. As it’s 0500 (oh-five-hundred) in the military not 5:00 (five o’clock). Though they get conflated because they both use 24 hours instead of the commonly used 12 hour clocks. The reason the military does it as a whole number is so it doesn’t get confused while relaying orders.
