I have been trying to find what regulation recruiters go by to enlist someone into the Army. Can someone help me out?

That's the wonderful thing about the Army. Every single Form had the Proponent listed at the bottom of the Form. Look at an Enlistment Contract.

I'm a few years removed from my recruiting days but I think it's still AR 601-210.

You will need not just the regulation but the various messages that are sent out which change the game, ..MOS's that are open or closed to enlistment, waivers that are authorized or not.

Recruiters...what other pertinent messages would this member need to get the whole picture, and how will he gain access to them?

AR 40-501 covers the medical regulations. Chapter 2.

AR 601-210, it covers everything that a recruiter needs to know regarding enlistment of an individual into the Army.
