Recruiter help for a friend.

On our local Volunteer FD we have a good kid who is 19. He is trying to figure out what he wants to do with his life. He has been working hard to get his FF certifications and he has just completed the Medical responders course with a score of 98. He discovered the 18D MOS among a few others. He went to the local recruiters and he was less than happy with the responses that he got from them. What he passed on to me was:

1: That the recruiters told him that Fire Fighter was not an MOS anymore, that everyone recieved firefighter training. (I dont know if it is true or not)
2: That they did not know anything about the X-Ray contracts but they doubted he could handle SF
3: The only thing that he really qualified for was mortuary services because he has work for a funeral home for 2 years.

Needless to say this upset me very much because I am the one that told him to consider the Army.

Now I am trying to find a good contact for this young man. Could someone point me in the right direction. We are local to the Sanford, Vass area.

Thank you
