OK, then it's DBWD that displays it that way.

I could probably change a setting to alter that (display format), but it's
not that big of a deal.

No, it is not displayed *from the DB* as '3:00:00 PM',
it is your application that does the formatting.

Firebird sends the result to client either in binary time format
(which is integer), or (if asked e.g. by CAST) as string
(in which case the result will be '15:00:00.0000', never am/pm)
