Yes and that includes the *Zulu base. *GMT military time.
-
Yes. It's really quite simple. You have a 24 hour clock and 24 time zones around the world. EST (Eastern Standard Time) is Sierra (S) time. EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) is Romeo (R) time. These letters are used to discuss local time. Most important operations use Zulu (GMT) time to reduce the chance of errors for people calculating what that means to the clock on their wall. I even know several people who wore two watches, one for local and one for Zulu time.

I'm embarrassed to admit I have to count forward for anything past 1200 hours, but I can if I have to.
-
I sure can.
-
Being in the military for two years.... I can easily say yes... But I did know how to read military time before getting into the forces.
-
Yes, I can. But what's strange is upon reading your question, I wondered how come? lol Didn't serve in the military. Don't remember who taught me - or when - or why. So you've introduced one of those "little life mysteries"! lol Find it's a convenient way to talk about time though. My local drug store has a phone line where you can call in a prescription refill. You can press phone buttons to tell them what time you want to be able to pick up your Rx. Yup ... military time to differentiate midnight through noon .. vs .. noon through midnight. :)
-
Yes, I can.
-
Yes, I can. Currently its 1354. Everything I do in our computer regarding employee hours are set up in military time.
-
Yes but it takes a little quick addition:-)
-
Sure, I just do the math for anything past noon.
-
Yep. I've lived in Europe for over 16 years and have been working for the Army since 2000, first as a Soldier, then as a military spouse, and now as a DoD employee.
-
Yes, I learned it while working for a Military based credit card company. I'm not instant but once I figure it out (subtract 12) then I know what time it is. :)
-
Sure I can. I work in law enforcement.
-
Yes, it's pretty much like European time, you just say 18 hundred hours, or 18:00, which is actually 6 pm. Europeans do use a 24 hour clock right? I forget. :(
-
I'd be worried if I couldn't :) Yes.
-
yes......being in the military forced me too and just memorized it. Easy to read morning 0600 hours up till you get to 1pm which is 1300hrs....then you just contiue up.
-
yes just -12 hr.
-
Yes, it's 16:21 here
-
yup, yup
-
Sure, why would you ask? a 24 hour clock instead of a 12 hour clock.
-
yes, and I know how to do the phonetic alphabet and give CPR! Am I recruited? lol.... ;) 21:23 BST
-
Yes...:) It's not too hard, but I must admit it takes me a few extra seconds when I look at it.
-
yar :)
-
I use it at work, so that is all I use. My phone is set to military time 1630 right now
-
of course!
-
I was a flight attendant, and we operate on that form of timekeeping, so yes, I can.
-
Yes! Where I work we have military time hours posted on our schedule so it's pretty much memorized. 13:00 is 1 pm, 17:00 is 5 pm, and 22:00 is 10 pm.
-
Yes. It's quite tricky at first, but I have learned my lessons :)
-
Sure yo...
-
ya like if the time is 22:00 yo u just subtract our clock from it and you get the time. example 22 15 17 -12 -12 -12 ______ _____ _____ 10 o clock 3 o clock 5 o clock
-
Yes right now it is 17:28 Ma'am.
-
A.M. 0000 = 12 midnight 0100 0200 0300 0400 0500 0600 0700 0800 0900 1000 1100 P.M. 1200 = 12 noon 1300 = 1 1400 = 2 1500 = 3 1600 = 4 1700 = 5 1800 = 6 1900 = 7 2000 = 8 2100 = 9 2200 = 10 2300 = 11

-
Yes, even though I've never been in the military...I find it easier to read than conventional, 12-hour time...no AM or PM needed...
-
Yes.
-
Yes, but sometimes I have to think a few seconds about it.
-
Yes , it is used mainly in Europe as normal time.
-
Yes, in fact I prefer it to 12-hour time. My watch and cell phone are set to military time, I think it's kind of a shame that all digital clocks don't have a setting for it.
-
No i couldn't.However,after seeing Sinister Cadre's answer i think it is quite easy :P
-
Whatever numbers above 12.00 you just minus 12.00 then youll get your pm.Example 1540 hundred hours minus 1200 is 3.40 pm.
-
Yep. Just add 12 to the pm hour numbers. (i.e. 1:00 pm is 1300)
-
ABSOLUTELY! 00:00 to 00:59 is 12 midnight to 12:59 AM 01:00 to 01:59 is 1:00 to 1:59 AM 02:00 to 02:59 is 2:00 to 2:59 AM 03:00 to 03:59 is 3:00 to 3:59 AM 04:00 to 04:59 is 4:00 to 4:59 AM 05:00 to 05:59 is 5:00 to 5:59 AM 06:00 to 06:59 is 6:00 to 6:59 AM 07:00 to 07:59 is 7:00 to 7:59 AM 08:00 to 08:59 is 8:00 to 8:59 AM 09:00 to 09:59 is 9:00 to 9:59 AM 10:00 to 10:59 is 10:00 to 10:59 AM 11:00 to 11:59 is 11:00 to 11:59 AM 12:00 to 12:59 is 12 Noon to 12:59 PM 13:00 to 13:59 is 1 PM to 1:59 PM 14:00 to 1:59 is 2 PM to 2:59 PM 15:00 to 15:59 is 3 PM to 3:59 PM 16:00 to 16:59 is 4 PM to 4:59 PM 17:00 to 17:59 is 5 PM to 5:59 PM 18:00 to 18:59 is 6 PM to 6:59 PM 19:00 to 19:59 is 7 PM to 7:59 PM 20:00 to 20:59 is 8 PM to 8:59 PM 21:00 to 21:59 is 9 PM to 9:59 PM 22:00 to 22:59 is 10 PM to 10:59 PM 23:00 to 23:59 is 11 PM to 11:59 PM Due to the fact a new day begins, THEN it repeats. Military dates are displayed a little differently than conventional or civilian dating. January 2, 2008 is normally displayed as 1/2/08 OR Jan. 2, 2008 The military style is 2-January, 2008 And so on until the month ends and changes. The day of the month ALWAYS preceds the month. Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it! VTY, Ron Berue Yes, that is my real last name! Sources: Because you asked. Was in the freight business over 6 years. Military time is THE ONLY WAY the delivery pick-up time and delivery time was expressed or stated. "THE University of Hard Knocks" also known as ("a/k/a") "life's valuable lessons"
-
Yes. I keep my watch set to it.
-
I can but there are certain times it takes me a bit to translate it in my mind. It'd be different if I'd needed to use it regularly. Like if I'd not lost my Air Force ride before it started when I was medically DQed a week before boot camp because of one lousy GD kidney stone.
-
Yes-of course
-
Of course, it's incredibly easy too.
-
I can.
-
Yes. I learned how to when I got my first IT job when I was 17.
-
Yep... Only times I have problems with are the minute from midnight to 0001 (0000 or 2400)? ;-)
-
Oh Right. 24 hour clock. sorry i got a bit confused. Sure I can read it. But i do oftern get confused.
-
i had to learn it when i was over seas about 6 yrs ago!
-
i can live it easier
-
thats how it is in spain, so yes.
-
yes im a green beret

We in Europe use what you call "military time" in our everyday lives. It's as normal to us as reading regular time. I was under the impression everyone did this nowadays since PC's all use the 24 hour clock (or is this not the case in the states?). It's as easy as subtracting 12 from the first two digit number (eg 1500 hours: first 2 digit number = 15. 15 - 12 = 3. Hence 3 o clock!). For Eurpopeans, this is natural to us so we dont go through this process in our heads, but if ur not used to it, then this is the best way.
-
yup
-
Yup, nothing to it.
-
YES
-
Yes :)
-
Yes ... I'm a former military instructor ...
-
Yup, I'm an air Force brat.
-
Yep... As a programmer there were times we needed to use it, and at one time I worked security, and we used it there. It's not that hard. For PM, add 12. Nothing to it. ;-) (The only one that can be confusing is midnight. And that's only for one second (or minute, depending on the # of digits you've used), though I believe some people use 0000 and 2400 hours interchangeably. ;-)
-
yes,

YES
