Ron Quigley, doorgunner with 178th ASHC, is looking for information

I am in need of any information about a downed chinook from the 101st Airborne? I was a door gunner, assigned to the 178th ASHC stationed in Chu Lai, attached to the Americal Div. I believe an incident took place sometime late Summer of 1969. An aviation company of the 101st Airborne, of six CH-47's, came up from Siagon, and were briefly assigned to the Americal Div. The men from 101st bivouacked in tents of the company area to the 178th, until disaster struck. One aircraft from the 101st company collided with an observation aircraft and all on board were killed. I would like very much to know the company involved in that incident? What was the date of that accident? Lastly, could you furnish me with the serial number to the aircraft please? Reference LF006
