Titolo: comando date

ciao
utilizzo il seguente comando 
DAY_VALUE=`date +'%b %e'`
per recuperare la data per poi fare delle ricerche con grep nel file
messages. Solo che il sistema mi produce l'output di date in formato
italiano e nel file messages e' in inglese. C'e' un modo per dire a
date di utilizzare il formato inglese?
grazie

 date di utilizzare il formato inglese?
man date ?
