Right, we'd automatically just say September 19th here.

It's also why we say September 11th, and why "4th of July" is said the way it is - it's a special day so it gets ordered differently to draw attention to it and to make it appear like a more formal holiday, since saying Day of Month is considered a more formal way of speaking here. Juneteenth also follows the Month/Day naming scheme.
