I totally know how you feel. My boyfriend is training to be an officer at sandhurst and the first five weeks are the hardest. We have spoke on the phone most days but he is always tired and grumpy so I never really get to talk properly. I think you just need to decide if you actually want a future with him where it's going to be tough. I'm trying to decide on that too. :-(

Sounds like he is in basic training. I am in a relationship with an army guy and Basic training was the worst, they work them so hard that they have no time to make phone calls. And in there free time they have to buff there boots, do there ironing and get some sleep. As he progresses it will get easier and they do get more freedom!
I learned that you just need to be there for them, as hard as it is dont put your worries on them because they are probably struggling to adjust to the change. If things dont change after this stage in his career then i am afraid to say it is probably something wrong with the relationship x HTH x

 Military relationships suck. (I was in one- he's out now though) Sometimes (especially when it comes to initial training- if that's what you're talking about) you have to put up with grumpy, sleep-deprived, sore, and homesick soldiers.
Sometimes they don't want you to see or hear them when they're so grumpy. Sometimes all they can think about is getting to sleep to rest up for another day.
next time you have contact, let him know how much you love it when he gives you a call, even if it's just to say hi. It lets you know he didn't forget his best girl at home. Ask him if you could write him letters- it's another good way to stay in touch. At least he'd be hearing from you, and that'd probably mean the world to him.
Army training is gonna be hairy. It's probably gonna be the hardest time for both of you. Good luck, try to stick by him. :)

 If he doen't anser your phone calls, then text him. Tell him that you miss him and that you can't wait to see him.
Most likely, he is really busy, and is in a schedule which is beyond his control.
