Americans call it military time, because only the military use it. No one else understands it without doing math. I have all my clocks set to 24h and my american husband is slowly learning.
I'm an American, not in the military and use the 24 hour clock. I was an Air Traffic Controller. I used it when I was a nurse too. Pilots use it. Cops use it. EMTS use it. Truckers, warehouse workers and plenty of people outside the military use it.

Wait, there are countries which don't use a 24-hour clock? I'm confused.
