If I have "LAX Marketing Jan 17 True Up", what is the formula that I can use to return the result as "Jan-17"?

I currently have
:"IFERROR(EOMONTH(DATEVALUE(SUBSTITUTE(MID(A1,MAX(IFERROR(FIND({"Jan ","Feb ","Mar ","Apr ","May ","Jun ","Jul ","Aug ","Sep ","Oct ","Nov ","Dec "},A1),0)),6)," ","-")),0),"")"

but whenever I'd use the formula, it'd return as "Jan-18" instead of "Jan-17". What am I doing wrong?
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
