Military genearally used 2400 instead of 0000. I come from a military family so that's what I learned. Both are correct though. :)

    From a mathematical stand point, 0000-2359 is easier, since you can calculate any time using mod 24.

    eg, if it's 1100 now, in 100 hours, it will be
    [ 11 ] + [ 100 ] = [ 111 ]
    = [ 15 ]


    So, it'll be 1500.
