sybase date field to Oracle - sqlldr

Oracle 10.2.0.3 - Solaris

I am trying to load dump files from a Sybase database and I am struggling over the date columns. The flat files have a date format of "Sep 17 2007 7:00:00:020AM"  

I do not need to use a time zone in Oracle so would prefer to load into a table with the column defined as datatype date (however timestamp is acceptable if that is the only way).  

I am using sqlloader to load the data and I have tried many permutations of the date format based around the two examples below  

load data

infile 'tbl_auto_reset.csv'

into table tbl_auto_reset

fields terminated by ',' optionally enclosed by '"'  

(

   CREDIT_TOKEN,    BUCKET_NUMBER,    LAST_RESET_TIME timestamp "mon dd yyyy hh:mi:ss AM"

)  

Or  

LAST_RESET_TIME date "mon dd yyyy hh:mi:ss AM" (with the table created with a different datatype (date/timestamp)  

I know I could edit each file and remove some of the data field but I would prefer to do it correct it via sqlloader  

The error message is  

Record 26: Rejected - Error on table TBL_AUTO_RESET, column LAST_RESET_TIME. ORA-01855: AM/A.M. or PM/P.M. required
