5. BONUS: "Down From Heaven" ringtone - Sung by Angels in 1950

Angels, please enjoy this recording of the Division song, "DOWN FROM HEAVEN" as sung by Angels from the 187th Parachute Infantry Regiment in 1950.

This is the earliest known recording of the song after it was written by COL Byron Leslie Paige (SSN 376405509, USMA 1932) of Shelby, Michigan. The music that accompanied COL Paige's lyrics for the song was arranged by Sergeant George Whissen.

You can listen to or download the cleaned up copyrighted audio of this song by clicking below. NOTE: there is also a bonus song titled "Luzon March" that was recorded at the same time in 1950 by the 11th Airborne Division Band and was composed by band-member and future MTNA-fellows Paul Bordeleau of Bedford, New Hampshire.
