In millitary standard time is midnight 24:00 or 0:00?

0:00
Military time starts at midnight which is 0:00 and goes through 11:59pm or 23:59 where it reverts back to 0:00 to start the next day

@RedDeerGuy it is 2400 hours. twenty-four hundred hours.

2 different answers.

According to militarytime we’re both correct.
Sometimes you may see 00:00 written as 24:00. Both are acceptable.

There is no such time as 24:01 however there is 0:01

How is “0:01” pronounced in the military?

Zero point oh one hundred hours, is my guess.

Since the time between midnight and 1:00 AM uses 0, like 0:01, it follows that midnight must be 0:00.

00:00 is more often used, but that is midnight the start of a day. 00:01 is more clear. 24:00 can be used as the end of a day. So, for instance someone might write the first shift is 4/3/22 at 00:00 to 08:00. Someone also might write something like everyone has to be out of the room by 24:00, because it’s the end of the night.

Using 00:01 would make it more clear what day and time.

Both are correct. If you are, say, in Monday and something his ending at midnight, it is 2400. If it is starting at midnight, it will be 0000.

0000 is my guess.

From what I understand it depends on what time you start. If your shift starts at midnight then you say it starts at 0 hundred if it ends at midnight then you say 24 hundred. I take it is a way to describe a day. So you wouldn’t say my shift starts at 24 hundred and ends at 24 hundred. You would say it starts at 0 hundred hours and ends at 24 hundred hours. So it’s one whole day cycle. Otherwise it would be confusing if I say your day begins and ends at 0 hundred. Then you don’t even work a second.

If someone asked the current time and it was midnight, what would be the correct answer, 000 or 2400?

I looked at a website and sure enough it is 0:00.

Midnight is called 24:00 and is used to mean the end of the day and 00:00 is used to mean the beginning of the day.
