You should probably say where you want the 24 hour format to be seen.
If you just mean the clock on the taskbar, you should be able to
right-click it and set your preferences.

If you mean elsewhere, it may be a locale option. Or, perhaps, an
environment variable.

Maybe LC_TIME? It is mentioned in `man 3 strftime' and `man locale'.

Open source is the future. It sets us free.

That is what I meant and I'm able to do it now (after I installed
virtually *ALL* of Fedora other than Clustering and Virtualization and
non-English languages), but I was not able to get the 24-hour time
format from the right-click on the date-time taskbar item.
