2400 is midnight--for US armed services?? As an ex-cop, I would have been
reprimanded for putting 00:00 on ANY report that was reflective of midnight.
Fortunately, I'm in the private sector now and using AM-PM!!

Huh? I am ex-mil (Aus RAAF) background - there is NO 24:00.
23:59:59.9999. -> 00:00
00:00 is am, 12:00 is pm. They are the starting tick of their period. Have I
missed something here? Please state a published reference for your very
spurious claims. I have never, _ever_ seen a time reference given as 24h00.
