Need to show AM/PM with MomentJS

Question

I am trying to format some dates using MomentJS. I have no problem until I try to add AM/PM or am/pm. I have the following function and am passing in the time from the results of a Breeze EntityQuery where the time is a System.DateTime as shown:

function datetimeCellRendererFunc(value) {
    // value = Mon Jun 15 2015 09:00:00 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time);
    return moment(value).format("MM/DD/YYYY h:mm A");
}

Whether I use A or a in the formatting, I still end up with the following:

06/15/2015 9:00 上午

Is there something else I need to add? Thank you in advance!!

To force the English locale globally, add

moment.locale('en');

to your code.

To configure it for a specific moment instance, you could also use

moment(value).locale('en').format(/* ... */);

in your function.
