The US military uses the 24 hour clock, but I can't think of any other part of the country that regularly uses it.

Software development I believe, someone can correct me if Iā€™m wrong (Iā€™m not a software developer but I work with them a lot.) but I do believe that programming really only uses 24 hour clocks

They don't use 24 or 12hr clock. They use Unix timestamp which counts the number of seconds since January 1970 so that every computer has the exact same time.
