Command to get only the Three Characters of the Month

Hi,

Please let me know if I can format the output of the date command to three character month name.

For example,if I type date and enter, it should give the Month name in the following format:

Jan or Feb or Mar etc i.e, only the first three characters of the month name.

Please respond ASAP.

Thanks
