The Pususoo bunker found in 2011
In 2011 a Forest Brothers' bunker was found on an island of firm ground in the Pususoo bog near Saarnakõrve village in Kose parish. Around it were a lookout tree with iron rungs, a stack of firewood, a well and the remains of a table. Archaeologists excavated the site in 2013 and 2014 and found many objects the Forest Brothers had used. The researchers also reached people who knew the story of the bunker and had photos of life in it while it was in use. The finds are now shown at the Estonian War Museum. The pin marks Saarnakõrve village, close to the bog; the year given is only an estimate of when the bunker was used.

2011. aastal leiti Kose vallas Saarnakõrve küla lähistelt Pususoo rabasaarelt metsavendade punker. Selle ümbert leiti raudpulkadega vaatluspuu, küttepuude riit, kaev ja laua jäänused. Aastatel 2013 ja 2014 tehti seal arheoloogilised kaevamised ja leiti hulgaliselt metsavendade kasutatud esemeid. Uurijad said ühenduse ka inimestega, kes teadsid punkri lugu ja kellel oli fotosid punkrielust selle kasutamise ajal. Leiud on välja pandud Eesti Sõjamuuseumis. Märk on raba lähedal Saarnakõrve külas, aastaarv on vaid hinnanguline.
