I have 2 recruits and I want to equip them in bone armor, how would I go about doing this?

This is probably the most detailed explanation.

Keep in mind that equipping is buggy at the moment. I've been waiting for my own dwarf to equip for over a year and only a few pair of underpants got signed off by the arsenal dwarf...

how skilled is your arsenal dwarf in bookwork, and more importantly, organization?

He is my leader/manager, so he should be capable to do it. Maybe outfitting is seen as a real low priority, and managing the fort always overrides.
However, I've got three leaders at this point (which comes and go for now reasons): it causes troubles with the liaisons and maybe has other effects as well.

I did not think you could double up on those might want a dedicated one

From the description of the event, I think that your copy of Dwarf Fortress was on drugs when this happened. That's surely the only logical explanation for a human werewolf with deadly farts dying from it's own excrement after slaughtering some goblins comrades.
