      The fundamental principle is measuring time around the earth and having agreed upon definitions in order to remain clear and organized. You can see a breakdown of which countries use military time or 24-hour time below. As you can see, most countries in the world utilize a 24-hour timekeeping system in their everyday lives and also for military use. The military uses a 24-hour time system instead. The period in time is indicated by using a full 24-hour clock. In order to avoid continual changing of time as one travels east or west standard time zones are introduced. Each time zone is 15 degrees of longitude in width. The difference between adjoining zones is one hour. As the day is approximately 24 hours long, on the military time clock, the day begins at midnight – 0000 in military time – and ends at 2359. Use the military time converter to quickly convert standard time to military time and vice versa. This part of the military time – http://www.thaicann.com – system is a little tricky for those of us who are used to the 12-hour clock (AM/PM). Military time uses the 24-hour clock, where the hours of the day are numbered from zero to 23, starting with 00 at midnight. Military time is a 24-hour clock designed to avoid confusion between daytime and nighttime hours, since the armed forces are in operation around the clock. It is based on a 24 hour clock, and is a method of keeping hours in which the day runs from midnight to midnight and is divided into 24 hour increments. It is the most commonly used interval notation in the world. Though it may seem technical to civilians, military time is simply based on a 24-hour clock rather than a 12-hour clock that repeats with am and pm. European countries commonly set digital clocks to a 24-hour clock.
