Picked this photo up awhile back and I feel like I should recognize the gentlemen in the photo but do not. Are the medals he is wearing GAR related?

Get your self a cheap jewlers loupe from a hobby shop. You can probably read the button. There great for looking at detail you cant see with the naked eye. There usally less than $10 for a decent one.

Hello Pip

 

This is a GAR medal, so it does not appear there is one in the photo

 

 

Not all GAR encampment badges were of the inverted star variety.....Some were round, some were just ribbons...Bodes
