date forms

Am I right in thinking that in the USA ( at least) the most common short
date form is mm/dd/yy, as opposed to our UK date form of dd/mm/yy? Or do
you use both equally as much...? If the former, it would presumably be
something of an irritant to have to enter dd/mm/yy...? The context here is
dates in start/finish times.

Regards,
