What does "in the states" mean? The U.S. military uses the 24-hour clock. Some police departments use the 24-hour clock. My aunt in Canada works at a hospital and they use the 24-hour clock. I use 24-hour time at my security job.

At 1200 hours it is 12:00 PM. At 0000 hours it is 12:00 AM.

EDIT: Actually using the 24-clock is rather quite commonplace in professions and the government, from the best of my knowledge. Everything from writing up receipts to reports to parking tickets.

Like I added to my first post: I think using 24-hour time is commonplace here. People in a lot of professions use it, from contractors to doctors to government employees.

I find this post to be very offensive.

Anyways, your run-of-the-mill American will only really know the 12-hour clock and it's generally those who are in the military/paramilitary (police, etc) or are in corporate america who know the 24-hour clock.

A lot of people generally know both to make things easier. The 12-hour clock is slowly but surely getting phased out.
