Citations
Ethics, copyright laws, and courtesy to readers require authors to identify the sources of direct quotations or paraphrases and of any facts or opinions not generally known or easily checked. ... [T]he primary criterion of any source citation is sufficient information either to lead readers directly to the sources consulted or, for materials that may not be readily available, to positively identify the sources used, whether these are published or unpublished, in printed or electronic form. Chicago Manual of Style, pg. 655 When developing curriculum, all writers are responsible for citing the sources they use. Writers are to provide complete, in-text citations as well as a list of references. Per MCU guidelines, students and faculty use the Chicago Manual of Style for citations. The following pages provide various examples of proper in-text citations. 1. Paraphrasing/summarizing sources. Even though you have rewritten source information, you are still required to reference your sources. By adding a parenthetical citation, not only are you crediting your information source, but you are providing your readers with the necessary tools to expand their knowledge. Parenthetical citations contain the authors last name (or short form of military publication) and the page number. Example 1: In the below example, several pages of information were paraphrased into one paragraph. Immediately following the paraphrase is the parenthetical citation which contains the military publication title (or author) and page numbers. Insurgencies normally seek to achieve one of three objectives: to overthrow the existing government in order to reallocate power, to expel who they perceive to be outsiders or occupiers," or to seek to create or maintain a region where there is little or no governmental control that they can exploit. Insurgents objectives include struggles for independence against colonial powers; the rising up of political, ethnic, or religious groups against their rivals; and resistance to foreign invaders. The central issue in an insurgency is the reallocation of power. Usually, an insurgency mounts a political challenge to the existing state through the formation of a counter state, which is promoted as an alternative to the existing state (FM 324.2, pg. 2-7). 2. Citing quotes of less than one paragraph. Brief quotes, less than one paragraph, can be written with either an attribution phrase or by using a parenthetical citation. Example 2a: For brief quotes, one to two sentences, you can use phrases such as: According to ... As stated in ... As defined by ... listing the source and then add quotation marks. As defined in MCRP 5-12A, Operational Terms and Graphics, a combatant command is a unified or specified command with a broad continuing mission under a single commander established and so designated by the President through the Secretary of Defense and with the advice and assistance of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Combatant commands typically have geographic or functional responsibilities. Example 2b: A second option for shorter quotes is a parenthetical citation. Immediately following the quoted material, type the military publication/document title (or author) and page number within parenthesis. Principles The principles of guerrilla tactics as stated by Mao Zedong are still valid: Enemy advances, we retreat. Enemy halts, we harass. Enemy tires, we attack. Enemy retreats, we pursue (FM 3-24.2, pg. 2-21).

3. Citing quotes of at least one paragraph in length but less than a full page. Quotes of at least one paragraph but less than a full page can be done in two ways. The first option is a simple parenthetical citation. Meaning, place quotes around the material, then immediately following add parenthesis with the publication/document title (or author) and page number, if applicable (see example below). The second option is a typeset change as shown on the top of the previous page. The typeset change does not require quotation marks, but does require the source citation. Example 3: The force structure of the Corps reflects its central purpose: an expeditionary force in readiness. And because it is expeditionary, it is also austere. Austerity places a premium on the role of every Marine. There are no rear area Marines, and no one is very are from the fighting during expeditionary operations. The success of each of these operations depends on the speed and flexibility with which Marines build combat power. Marines fighting with maneuver elements are backed up by fellow Marines who labor unceasingly to support the mission by building logistic bases, running truck convoys, distributing supplies, and fighting when needed to. (MCWP 6-11, pg. 14) 4. Quotes exceeding one full page. In the event you have a full page/multiple pages of text, an electronic news article, etc., the following statement is required: The following information is culled/reproduced from ... and list the source/web link, author (if applicable), date of publication, and date of download. Example 4a: (Note: Within the lesson, this table exceeds one page; for the purpose of this example, the table was not reproduced in its entirety.) The following terms and definitions are culled from the Joint Publication 1-02, DoD Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms, as amended through 30 September 2010.
Glossary Term Counterguerrilla operations Counterinsurgency (COIN) Counterintelligence (CI) Definition Operations and activities conducted by armed forces, paramilitary forces, or nonmilitary agencies against guerrillas. Comprehensive civilian and military efforts taken to defeat an insurgency and to address any core grievances. Information gathered and activities conducted to protect against espionage, other intelligence activities, sabotage, or assassinations conducted by or on behalf of foreign governments or elements thereof, foreign organizations, or foreign persons, or international terrorist activities. The states ability to serve the citizens through the rules, processes, and behavior by which interests are articulated, resources are managed, and power is exercised in a society, including the representative participatory decision-making processes typically guaranteed under inclusive, constitutional authority. In intelligence usage, an item of information which reflects the intention or capability of an adversary to adopt or reject a course of action. The organized use of subversion and violence by a group or movement that seeks to overthrow or force change of a governing authority. Insurgency can also refer to the group itself.

Wounded Marine says he'd do it all over again


By Linda McIntosh Community News Writer San Diego Union-Tribune 28 May 2005 CAMP PENDLETON Lance Cpl. Jeremiah Letterman earned two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star. He's only 22. Like many Marines, Letterman downplays his heroics and talks about his next deployment to Iraq. His Bronze Star citation states that a rocketpropelled grenade blew up [two] feet from him, injuring his head and arm, but he kept fighting.
EDUARDO CONTRERAS/Union-Tribune Taylor Letterman, 21 (left), held her husband Jeremiah Letterman's Bronze Star. Jeremiah, 22, was injured by a rocket-propelled grenade and shot in Iraq. In addition to the Bronze Star, he also received two Purple Hearts.

Although seriously wounded, he continued an assault through two enemy positions, the citation said. Then, while crossing an intersection, he was shot in the stomach. Because there was heavy enemy fire, Letterman couldn't be evacuated for hours. ...

Editors Note: In this particular example, the photographers byline information is included with the article. The entire article and accompanying graphics contain all the necessary information for citation purposes.

Annex A: Vertical Lists


Bullets and Numbered Lists: When typing text that requires bullets or a numbered/alphabetized list, (all known as vertical lists) follow this guidance: There is closing punctuation on vertical lists that are complete sentences:

Vertical lists begin flush to the left. The spacing for the last line of a bullet will be 6 before and 6 after.

o There must be at least two items within a vertical list.


o There are no more than four levels which does NOT include the opening line. The first level of bullets uses a solid black circle. The second level of bullets uses an open white circle.

The third level of bullets will be a solid black square. The fourth level of bullets uses an open white square.

NO closing punctuation on vertical lists that appears as:

Single Words Incomplete sentences Phrases Each line begins with a capital letter

Outlined vertical lists containing both letters and numbers follow standard naval correspondence. This format is generally used for ordered lists such as the five paragraph order SMEAC. An example of this standard is as follows: 1. If there is a number one, there must be a number two. 2. If there is an a, there must be a b. a. Closing punctuation follows the above rules for vertical lists. b. Each level is indented so the outlining letter/number is aligned with the first letter of the previous levels sentence. (1) If text requires more than one line, such as letter b above, create a hanging indent to align the text. (2) Each line begins with an uppercase letter. (a) This is the fourth and last level. (b) When all else fails, ask the editor.

Annex B: Graphics Examples


Overview. Graphics and tables may appear any place in the text to help illustrate text and aide the visual learner. Remember to include captions/titles. Graphics are considered figures and tables are, of course, tables. Figures and tables are numbered consecutively, but separately. Meaning, figures begin with number one and continue until the last figure is numbered; tables also begin with number one and continue until the last table is numbered (see examples below).

(Reprinted from MCWP 3-11.4; pg 4-7) Figure 4: LZ Obstacle Clearance

Step 1 2 3 4 5 6

Action Open compass so cover is fully extended. Cover will form a straightedge with base. Move lens (rear sight) to the rear (90 from the base) ensuring compass dial can move freely. Place your thumb through thumb loop. Rest compass base on extended thumb and align index finger with long edge of compass. Pull elbows along your sides. Compass should be at stomach level. To measure an azimuth, turn your body toward an object, or in direction you wish to move, pointing compass cover in that direction. Look down and read azimuth beneath fixed black index line.
