Ron,

This was also in the 23 May '69 1/35th journal regarding the downed helicopter:

1043 hours (C) B Co To TOC: Ref to earlier message about downed slick; All parts were real old and rusty, found C-rations cans all around and looks like another element found it before. We are unable to determine whether it had bullet holes or not.

From reading the journal one would assume the slick was intact and had been stripped but not destroyed.
