Basic Training is just what the name implies, Basic. It's where you learn all the Basic skills you need to have to function in whatever service you chose to join. It's a lot of History, how to march, how to function as a unit, rifle qualification and etc. MOS training comes after. You get paid while you are in Basic but you wont see most of it until you graduate. There are buddy programs, but you'd have to ask a recruiter what is available for the service you want to enter. In the Marine Corps if you dont measure up to the basic physical qualifications they will keep you in Boot Camp until you do.
