    I think you just need to expand your Month format to 3 M’s and the days char is d not W.

    new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd yyyy hh:mm:ss:SSSa");
                          ^^^ ^^
    

    Check here for more information on date formats http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html
