If I am not very much mistaken,one of the best fighter pilots to perform in the Arab-Israel war was from East Pakistan.
His name is Saiful Azam.

I dont find any logical reason for why Pakistan got involved in that though.
Even though a small contingent of Pakistanis joined the force, the fact is that David Ben Gurion threatened Pakistan. Therefore, sending a small force is valid.
Here is what he said:
“The world Zionist movement should not be neglectful of the dangers of Pakistan to it. And Pakistan now should be its first target, for this ideological State is a threat to our existence. And Pakistan, the whole of it, hates the Jews and loves the Arabs. “This lover of the Arabs is more dangerous to us than the Arabs themselves. For that matter, it is most essential for the world Zionism that it should now take immediate steps against Pakistan. “Whereas the inhabitants of the Indian peninsula are Hindus whose hearts have been full of hatred towards Muslims, therefore, India is the most important base for us to work there from against Pakistan. “It is essential that we exploit this base and strike and crush Pakistanis, enemies of Jews and Zionism, by all disguised and secret plans.”
-David Ben Gurion, the first Israeli Prime Minister.His words, as printed in the Jewish Chronicle,9 August 1967:
