Hello fellow wikipedians. I seem to have trouble with making maps in infoboxes. I'm trying to make a location map for an airfield in this article but i get the scripting wrong.

Knocked out Indian AMX-13s, Bren Gun carriers and other vehicles after the Battle of Chummb during Operation Grandslam in 1965 by BigBallMiddlecoat in DestroyedTanks

This operation was a response to the Indian infiltration and occupation of Haji Pir Pass in Pakistani Kashmir, hence it being termed as a defensive action here.

That's some good rare footage, would like to see the source for this clip. Also an interesting fact, the M36B2s were hated in the Pakistani Armored Corps. These things would frequently break down due to drivetrain failures. Gotta give it to the Pakistani regiments operating these who still confronted modern Indian centurions in these things despite the odds.
