what time is 2359 in regular time?

At 2359 in military time, it is one minute away from midnight. Military time, or 24-hour clock time, keeps a consistent count of the hours in a day. Instead of recognizing 12 hours before and 12 hours after noon as we do in regular time (or "civilian" time), military time begins at 0000 and ends at 2400.

For example, at 0000 military time is equal to 12:00am midnight on regular time. Keep in mind that we don't usually use phrases like "twenty-three hundred fifty-nine" when we talk about military time — so 2359 means "eleven fifty-nine" in regular time.

When it's 2359 military time, then it's 11:59 pm on the regular 12 hour clock. It's the end of the day, just one minute away from starting the entire cycle over again with 0000 military time — or midnight on the regular clock. It's easy to convert military to civilian (or vice versa) — all you have to do is remember that when it reaches 2400 on the 24-hour clock, it keeps rolling back over to 0001 hour afterwards!

how do you convert 2359 to standard time?

When it comes to time, there is standard time and military time. Sometimes converting between the two formats can be confusing. Here we will look at how to convert 2359 or 11:59 PM in standard time to military time.

Standard time (also known as regular or civil time) is the convention of breaking up the day into 24 equal hours beginning with midnight and ending the following day at midnight. As an example, 2:35 PM would be 14:35 in standard time.

Military Time, on the other hand, is a way of tracking the passage of time by separating a 24-hour cycle into smaller units, typically hours and minutes instead of hours and a fraction of an hour like in standard time. Military Time also begins with 0000 or "zero hours," followed by minutes. So if it's 2:35 PM in standard time, it's written as 1435 in Military Time.

So how do you convert 2359 or 11:59 PM in standard time? Simple: by subtracting 12 hours from 2359 (or 11:59 PM). To convert this number to Military Time, we only need to subtract twelve hours from 2359 so that they become 1159; this means that 11:59 PM in standard time is written as 1159 in Military Time. This could also be written out as 23:59 for those who prefer hours followed by minutes instead of just four digits.
