Default Create calendar events from text file

I need to add my wifes work shifts into my calendar. They are listed on a
text file and there is certain pattern it follows e.g.

31 Fr Duty 1655 AY2155 HEL 1755 AGP 2130 757 AY2156 AGP 2230 HEL 0355
757

01 Sa 0425 11:30 29:35
02 Su OFF 0000 0000
03 Mo Duty 0635 1155 05:20 13:30 AY661 HEL 0735 CPH 0815 32S AY662 CPH
0855 HEL 1125 32S
04 Tu OFF 0000

Is there a possibility to fill these into a calendar with a script and here
can I find such?
Thank's in advance

Put one of those in the calendar, the first one for instance, and then
Export that day to a CSV file. Now Open that CSV file and look carefully
at the contents. Format your TEXT file to look like that Exported CSV.
Change the file extention to CSV and then Import it into your calendar.
