Memorial to the Groupe Militaire de Rathelot de Provence
Highlight • Monument
At Dupleix, then at Petit-Port, at Lauriers Roses, at Noisy-les-bains, at Staoueli, little by little, under the command of battalion commander Bouvet, the unit was forming, receiving its equipment, and above all, following extensive training, physical and military, on land, on board ships and even submarines.
It should be added that to its pioneers, came to swell our ranks, from 1944 the so many volunteers who came from almost all of France.
All those who joined us showed first-rate warrior and human qualities. It is thanks to the contribution of these brave "Commandos" aggregated individually or collectively attached to our unit, from Corsica, Provence, Paris, the Territory of Belfort, Alsace and other provinces that the Third Group of Shock battalions, could accomplish so many feats of arms.
All of them gave the best years of their youth for beloved France.
Honor to our dead… and to the living. »

The service will however be of short duration since the lines gradually disappear from 1932 (closure of the Réchésy line). The northern line (Étueffont, Rougemont, Lachapelle-sous-Rougemont) was closed in 1936, except for the Étueffont-Haut branch. In 1938, the Sochaux line disappeared in turn. Only the Belfort - Étueffont-Haut line remained until July 4, 1948.
The network is mainly built along the roads, the army having refused the creation of new embankments, for strategic reasons.
All the lines are electrified with single-phase current at a voltage of 6,600 volts 25 Hz2.
Electricity is produced by the Chanois des Houillères de Ronchamp power station and then distributed by the Belfort substation. The rolling stock consists of railcars3.
After an extension project abandoned in 1921, electric traction was abandoned in favor of steam in 1922, following the non-renewal of the contract with the coal mines. It was then restored in the 1920s and then disappeared in 1934. The service was then provided by railcars.
