i’ll try one more time and if you can’t get this then idk youtube’s problem. so, let’s call our typical system of keeping time T (for typical time). So, until 12pm, the hours are completely the same. it’s just that after that, soldiers didn’t want to look at their watch and not know if it was am or pm. so instead of repeating numbers, they just kept going until 24. for example, 20:00 in T is 8:pm, because 20-12=8. then, it just resets to 1am right along with us, hope this helps!
