You are correct about Seasons and Locale. The one that was in 12 hour had a US locale. The one that was in 24 hour had a GB locale. When I fixed the locale of the latter, it went to 12-hour.
Note though: When I changed "hour =" to "%I:%M %p", it had no effect. I had to change the locale to get it to work the way I wanted.
