> My clock is stuck on military time Incidentally, that's almost certainly not "military" time, but "most of the rest of the world" time (24-hour clock notation). They are difficult to tell apart, but if it *truly* is military time, then try creating a post at 00:00 or 24:00 - it will get rejected, as the military don't allow anything to happen precisely at 00:00 or 24:00 because of the potential confusion of which *day* it is happening on. It's very embarrassing when half of your force turns up to the party on the wrong day. Especially if all of the enemy turns up on time. That's really interesting. So what does the military do in place of
00:00 or 24:00? Or do they just not plan for anything to occur at those times.

Logically, I would say at the end, so one minute after 23:59 in the same day. But if you tell someone to meet you at 24:00 on the 10th of October, some people will be there at midnight tonight (the 9th); all very confusing.
