 It is probably not set for Thunderbird specifically.
It is more likely in "region and language".
 If you click up "desktop settings"
then " region and language"
them "time and dates"
then your time format should be HH:MM:SS
all capitals. 
this will usually get you a 24 clock.

I assume Thunderbird will pick it up

If you have the digital clock enabled in the task bar it should reflect 24 
hour time
