What Squadron of de Haviland Mosquito's were at RAF Schleswig when it was closed in 1958?

As far as I can remember the Mosquito's based at RAF Schleswig up to 1958 did not have the dignity of a squadron number. The Mossies were B 35's modified to the target towing role with air driven winches fitted under the fuselage I seem to remember there were 9 B35's and one T3 ( full dual control and no winch).
We were simply known as the Target towing flight and we were a subsidiary of RAF Sylt. Our primary job was to tow target drogues for the Bundeswehr over the Todendorf firing ranges, light ack-ack wasn't too bad but heavy AA could be scary, especially remembering that in the mid fifties there where some gunners that had actually shot at Mossies in ernest a few years before!
We actually burned some Mossies as they were declared not worth flying home! One at least found its way to America to the Kermit Weeks aircraft museum, RA 299 I think.
I've got some photos if they are wanted

What features should I look for to keep mosquitos out of camping tents?
At the end of the day, chemicals and other deterrents are not going to be the answer. I would look for a tent that allows for quick entry and exit. Make sure the tent you use can be completely closed off and do your best to not exit when you don't need to.
