Answer 1

Using the NLP tool to extract dates from text seems like overkill if this is all you are trying to accomplish. You should consider other options like a simple Java regular expression (eg. here).

If you are doing something that requires more features from the Stanford NLP tool, take a look at the SUTime annotator. Their demo page will let you get a feel for how it behaves. Make sure to check the option Read rules from file and you will see that your date gets annotated.

Usage:

SUTime annotations are provided automatically with the StanfordCoreNLP pipeline by including the ner annotator.
