Problem

Is there any way to force 24-hour time in my locale (for example, 14:00) instead of 12-hour time (2:00 PM)? I use the en_US locale with a UTF-8 character set on Arch Linux, but this shouldn't matter, I think.

Low Risk

Locales can be set for various components separately, so you can set to either " " (Great Britain), " " (Denmark – ISO 8601 time), or " " (no locale). (Don't forget /etc/locale.gen.)
