What is 1600 in regular time?
4:00 PM. For hours from 1200 onward you subtract twelve: 16 minus 12 gives 4, so 1600 is 4:00 PM. Military time never uses a colon and never uses AM or PM, because the hour alone says which half of the day you mean.
How do you say 1600?
"sixteen hundred hours". Times on the hour take "hundred", so the trailing zeros are spoken rather than skipped.
4:00 PM in military time
The other direction: 4:00 PM is 1600. Afternoon and evening times add twelve to the hour, so 4 PM becomes 16. Either way the minutes never change.
