What does 1800 mean in military time

1800 or 1800 hours is 6:00 p.m. in regular or standard time.

Military Time is a time format using a 24 Hour Time system that eliminates the need for the designations "A.M." and "P.M.". It is sometimes referred to as "24 Hour Time".

The main difference between regular and military time is how hours are expressed. Regular time uses numbers 1 to 12 to identify each of the 24 hours in a day. In military time, the hours are numbered from 00 to 23. Under this system, midnight is 00, 1 a.m. is 01, 1 p.m. is 13, and so on.
