What does 0800 represent in standard time?

0800 in standard time refers to 8 AM. The military uses a 24-hour clock format, where the first two digits represent the hour and the last two digits represent the minutes. Since 0800 indicates "08" hours and "00" minutes, this corresponds directly to 8 AM in standard time. In civilian timekeeping, times are expressed from midnight to noon (1 AM to 12 PM) using a 12-hour clock format, which is why 0800 translates to 8 in the morning without any complication.
