My solution is more complicated than the one provided. My issue is that my workflow is extremely NOT dynamic!

Kind of a frustration challange for me.

I tried to find a functionality to parse the month letter into the 3 letter date abbriviation and I didn't manage to do so before I looked at the solution. The giant IF statement was not what I was hoping for. In my solution I used a text input with the months and combined that with the years through an append tool.
