Hey all. I'm hoping someone could help me with this. I'm trying to get some logs setup properly but I can't seem to get the Timestamp to parse correctly. These are some examples of how my timestamp looks in the log files

7:00:01 PM Sunday, October 14, 2018 ||  
11:27:13 PM Wednesday, October 24, 2018 ||  
12:00:00 AM Tuesday, October 16, 2018 ||

I've tried different variations of h:mm:ss a EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy or h:mm:ss a EEEE, MMMM d, yyyy

```
    date{
            match => ["log_timestamp", "h:mm:ss a EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy", "hh:mm:ss a EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy", "MMM dd, yyyy HH:mm:ss a"]

            target => "@timestamp"
    }

```

I keep getting a dateparseerror though. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
