I figure out how cite it.
To properly cite an online source like the one you mentioned, you can follow the guidelines provided by the Modern Language Association (MLA) or the American Psychological Association (APA). I'll explain how to cite this source in both MLA and APA formats:
MLA Format:
1. Begin with the author's name or the organization responsible for the content. In this case, the organization is the "Joint History Office."
2. If the author's name is not provided, skip this step and move to the next.
3. Include the title of the web page or article within quotation marks.
4. Add the name of the website or database in italics followed by a comma.
5. Include the publication date or the date of the latest update. If neither is provided, use the abbreviation "n.d." to indicate "no date."
6. Add the URL of the web page (without the http:// or https://) or the DOI (Digital Object Identifier) if it's available.
Here's an example of an MLA citation for the source you mentioned:
Joint History Office. "Operation Just Cause." GlobalSecurity.org, 2012, www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/just_cause.htm.
APA Format:
1. Start with the author's name or the issuing organization. In this case, you will use the "Joint History Office."
2. If the name is not provided, begin with the title of the article.
3. Include the publication date or the date of the latest update in parentheses.
4. Add the title of the web page or article in sentence case (capitalize the first word and any proper nouns).
5. Include the name of the website or database in italics.
6. Add the URL of the web page.
Here's an example of an APA citation for the same source:
Joint History Office. (2012). Operation Just Cause. GlobalSecurity.org. Retrieved from www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/just_cause.htm.
Remember, it's important to consult the official style guide for the specific formatting requirements of your academic institution or the project you are working on.
