2:15 in regular time translates to 14:15 in military time. Military time, or 24-hour clock time as it's sometimes referred, is an alternative way of telling time where instead of counting forward 12 hours a day and transitioning from morning to afternoon and evening, military time counts forward 24 hours a day. So at 12:00 PM regular time, military time converts to 00:00. As time moves forward throughout the day, regular time will read 1:00 PM, 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM but during the same period of time military will say 13:00, 14:00 and 15:00 respectively.
Not everyone is required to run on this type of clock format; it's most popularly used in the military, transportation services like airports and bus stations as well as emergency services like fire departments since coordinating these scenarios usually require precision when tracking minutes throughout the day.
At 2:15 PM regular standard or civil clock-time this would convert to 14;15 in military added values clock-time with twelve being added each hour. This means it adds twelve hours when nine o'clock passes on a civil clock. It is expressed by four numbers between 0 to 23 making it 24 hour based which helps people avoid confusion when someone says something like 'six o'clock in the morning' because they could mean 6 AM or 6PM which are opposed ends of the day unless they specify further.
To sum up here is a basic chart that can help accurately covert your current civilian time into military clock at any given point throughout the day.
