6/12/15, it's [b]Month/Day/Year[/b] in America, don't say that there's confusion just say June 12th instead of the number method...
English
-
it's Day-month-year in the military here in the US.

Okay so our country makes no sense...

It makes perfect sense. We're an international presence, should we not meet our brethren across the globe in many ways to better foster understanding and communication? Simple things like this lubricate the system so we can better handle the transfer of data and goods.

To the rest of the world that uses Metric, actual English, and a dating system that works.. It's Day/Month/year.
-
Just wondering why the US dating system doesn't work?
-
mm/dd/yyyy is awkward for 90% of people. Most people use dd/mm/yyyy as its logical.
-
It's not logical, it's arbitrary. When describing when things happen, I think about the month first as it confers context, then pin point it to the day, then clarify with the year. Which is most similar to the way you would use a calendar. When scheduling an appointment you look for the month first the vast majority of the time.

I agree going from smallest to biggest makes sense. I was just questioning how it doesn't work. Which obviously it does. I can look at 6/12/15 and know it's the 12th day of June. Now the metric system on the other hand is far easier to understand than out current system, but logistically converting everything over would be a nightmare at this point.
-
In UK we say the 12th of June
-
Then go by either or... [spoiler]Why does my country have to be so stupid sometimes.... No metric system and always dropping the "U"...[/spoiler]
