The GAR guys are wearing monument badges, GAR past officer badge, and a 6th Corp badge. Three of the GAR veterans are identified in ink on the front of the photo. Also in period ink on the front of the photo it says "High Water Mark - Gettysburg, Pa. - July 4, 1913". The photo was taken by W.H. Tipton, the premier Gettysburg photographer.
