You're supposed to make a change to your locale in

Personalization --> Regional Settings --> Formats

there you're supposed to check the "Detailed Settings" box and then pick a 
locale for Time what does 24hr such as gb (Great Britian).  You could use "C" 
from the GUI but there is currently a bug which causes that to fail.

What I do is to simply add

export LC_TIME=C

to my ~/.bashrc file.

No matter what you do, you need to logout/login for the changes to take effect.

There is a BZ upstream to address this whole issue.  People are generally 
unhappy with the current method which lacks the ability to make more precise 
settings for your preferred formats.
