a full date (month-day-year) serves as an adjective before a noun

And would you place a comma after the year when a full date (month-day-year) serves as an adjective before a noun?

Example:

The Sept. 11, 2001, attacks immobilized the nation. Comma after 2001?

The Jan. 1, 2009, issue of Businessweek sold more copies than any other issue in history.
Comma after 2009?

Thanks again.

Actually, I wouldn't, but reputable style manuals say you should do so when the date is presented in that form.
