So if you were in the military (which uses military time of course ) and it was 1 PM you would say

13:00 hours because after 12:00 (noon) the hour becomes 13:00 and it goes up to 24:00 (which is midnight)

For anything before noon (12) one would say 05:00 (O five hundred hours)

So right now in military time (where I live) it is 19:58 hours (nineteen hundred fifty eigth hours) (7:58 PM)
