About Us

Most people run into military time at the worst possible moment — staring at a hospital discharge paper, reading a flight itinerary, or trying to decode a work schedule that says “1430” and wondering if that means 2:30 PM or something else entirely.

That one small moment of confusion can spiral into a missed appointment, a late arrival, or a serious mix-up in high-stakes environments. We built MilitaryChart.com to make sure that never happens to you.

This site exists for one reason: to be the clearest, most reliable, and most complete free resource for military time on the internet. No sign-up. No paywalls. Just the information you need, when you need it.

What We Cover

Our site gives you a full set of tools to understand, read, and convert military time — also known as the 24-hour clock.

The Military Time Chart: A clean, printable conversion chart that maps every standard 12-hour time to its 24-hour equivalent, complete with correct pronunciation. You can download it as a PDF and keep it on hand.

Minute-by-Minute Charts: We break down all 24 hours of the day into individual pages, each with a full 60-minute conversion table. Every hour from 0000 to 2300 has its own dedicated chart you can download and print.

The Military Time Converter: An instant online tool that converts any time between AM/PM and military format. Type in a time, get the answer right away — no math required.

Written Guides: We explain how to read military time, how to say it out loud, how to write it correctly, and where the 24-hour clock system gets used in real life. We keep the explanations simple enough for anyone to follow.

Who Uses This Site

Our visitors come from all kinds of backgrounds, but they share one thing: they need accurate time information fast.

Healthcare workers use our charts to double-check medication schedules and shift rotations. Travelers use the converter when reading international train or flight timetables. Parents use our guides to help kids understand the 24-hour clock for school or travel. Military families use our pronunciation guides and charts to stay on the same page as their service members. Logistics and transportation workers reference our charts when working with delivery schedules and GPS systems that run on military time.

If the 24-hour clock shows up in your life — even occasionally — this site has something useful for you.

How We Build Our Content

Every chart, converter, and guide here starts with one question: what does someone actually need to know? We skip the filler. We skip the fluff. We write for clarity, not word count.

Our time conversion data follows the ISO 8601 international standard, which is the same standard used by the military, aviation, healthcare systems, and global tech infrastructure. We verify our charts against this standard before publishing anything.

When we find an error, we fix it fast. Accuracy is not optional on a site people use to get time-sensitive information right.

What Makes Us Different

A lot of websites cover military time. Most of them bury the useful information under walls of text, broken converters, or cluttered layouts that make it hard to find what you came for.

We keep it simple. The converter works. The charts download cleanly. The explanations get to the point. We designed every page to load fast, read easily on any device, and give you the answer before you get frustrated.

We also go further than most. Our minute-by-minute breakdown for every hour of the day is a resource most sites do not offer. If you need to know what 1347 means down to the minute, we have a chart for that.

Our Commitment

Our site will always be free. We do not charge for charts, converters, or guides. We cover our costs through unobtrusive advertising, and we keep ads from getting in the way of the content you came here for.

We will keep adding to this site. More guides, more tools, clearer explanations — that is the direction we are moving. If something on the site is wrong or confusing, we want to hear about it. Use the contact page and we will look into it.

Time matters. We take that seriously.

About the Author

Marcus Holl has spent years working in logistics coordination, where reading the 24-hour clock was not optional, it was the job. After watching colleagues and new hires constantly struggle with military time conversions, he started putting together reference materials to make the learning curve shorter.

This site grew out of that habit. Marcus built it for the same reason he made those early reference sheets because one clear chart beats ten confusing explanations. He is not a soldier, and he will not pretend to be one. He is someone who works with time-sensitive systems daily and knows exactly where people get tripped up.

When he is not updating the site, Marcus follows freight and supply chain trends and occasionally explains military time and its issue related to it to remove confusion in family members at holiday dinners.
