We present a study of He$^{++}+$H collision in the
presence of linearly polarized laser field. We performed three
dimensional calculations in the
semi-classical impact parameter approximation. A remarkable
enhancement of four to five fold
in the capture cross section is seen even for a moderate intensity of
$3.5\times10^{12}$W/cm$^2$.
Our results are for linearly polarized light both perpendicular
and parallel to the collision
plane. We focus on the parameters easily accessible in the
laboratory and discuss the
possibility of performing such an experiment.
