If users will be scanning the date column, a format (all but your 1st
& 6th sixth example) that pads the numerical value will be easiest to
scan - and compare.

You mention a US audience, but assumptions of Month/Day/Year can
still lead to ambiguities. I'd suggest spelling out the month, and
then padding the day and year
