I've always heard it referred to as "military time" or "24 hour time". I can't speak for the entire country, but plenty of people in Los Angeles know it, at least.

Growing up in USA and really most of my life I've only heard it referenced in a military context or by someone in the military. So used to AMPM it just feels right.
