Did you try running the suggestion Chubler_XL suggested before saying it won't work? His code won't print the current day's day of week, it will either give you a diagnostic saying that the date utility doesn't recognize a --date option, or it will do what you requested.
What OS are you using?
Maybe I don't understand what you're trying to do. You said you want the output:
July 1, 2014 was a Tuesday; not a Monday.
June 26, 2014 was a Thursday; not a Wednesday.
June 27, 2014 was a Friday; not a Tuesday.
And, July 2, 2014 was a Wednesday; not a Friday and a Saturday???
Firstly, if I sounded dismissive I certainly did not intend my post to appear so, I genuinely appreciate people sharing their experience freely with novices like myself. So Chubler_XL if my post came across as offensive then I sincerely apologise.
No, I did not try the example, I read it with my unqualified skill level and assumed it would simply return todays date. I should have actually taken the time to type this in to the terminal, when I did, it indeed returned what I needed.
As for the erroneous data in my post, I simply hand typed some days against the original data, that is the reason the days chosen do not match the actual dates, it was purely for illustration purposes.
Again thank you to everyone for you assistance, and apologies for my incorrect assumptions. Lesson learned, when you don't know what you are talking about (that's me!), it's best to shut up

In HP-UX the date command does not have the "-d" switch like some other *nixes do. I'm working a simple script to tell me, given the day, month and year what day of the week that falls on.
