Question? MH 53J Accident/ crew info sought

looking for this info: MH-53J 69-5795 - tail separated during hard landing - which date ? what about crew ?

Joe Baugher's website is pretty thorough and he has no record of the accident. I'd suggest if he doesn't have it, then there's no publically available record of it - http://www.joebaugher.com/usaf_serials/1969.html

It was a J model between approximately 1989 and 1995 before being converted to an M, it presumably happened then.

The following website is dedicated to Desert Storm and mentions the accident, so apparently it occured during the First Gulf War:

Damaged and lost allied planes and helos

www.dstorm.eu

It also matches the period that Gaz mentioned above.

The USAF publish aircraft incident/accident reports here - https://www.afjag.af.mil/AIB-Reports/

I first became aware of them about twelve years ago and to the best of my knowledge, I've never seen a combat related one on there. If it did happen in the Gulf War it would possibly explain why there's no more obvious details available on the 'net.
