Ouvrage Bousse, also known as Ouvrage Bois de Bousse, is a lesser work (''petit ouvrage'') of the Maginot Line in the Fortified Sector of Boulay. The ''ouvrage'' is located between ''petit ouvrage'' Hobling and ''gros ouvrage'' Anzeling, near Hestroff in the Bois du Bousse, facing Germany. A small position, it was manned primarily by reservists. It is noted for the events of 15 June 1940, when it received orders to prepare for an evacuation as German forces advanced along the Line in the Battle of France. As the garrison prepared to abandon the position, sabotaging equipment, they destroyed their telephone connection, leaving them unable to receive the order countermanding the evacuation. The garrison was captured three days after leaving Bousse. Bousse is now managed as a museum and is open to public visitation. == Design and construction == Bousse was approved for construction by the Commission d'Organisation des Régions Fortifiées (CORF), the Maginot Line's design and construction agency, in 1930 and became operational by 1935,〔Kaufmann 2006, p. 25〕 at a cost of 23 million francs. The contractor was Gianotti of Nice.〔Mary, Tome 1, p. 52〕 Bousse was sited to control the Thionville-Hargarten and Metz-Bouzonville railroad lines. A plannedblock to cover the railroad cutting just beyond Block 1 was never built. It would have functioned much like a casemate in a counterscarp had it been built, with the cutting standing in for a traditional outer ditch.〔Kaufmann 2011, pp. 231-232〕
