Ask someone stationed there (or someone who has been stationed there)
about the best calling cards (which will not be the cheapest).
A few years ago, we bought some via the military -
https://thor.aafes.com/scs/default.aspx. There are cheaper calling
cards, but finding a phone that will accept them & excessive waiting in
line is typically a problem for non AT&T cards. Calling from
Afghanistan is typically better than calling from the US.
http://www.ecallchina.com/calling-cards/call/Afghanistan.aspx has a
number of options, but do keep in mind that the "cheaper" ones tend to
have significant drawbacks.
Does your BF have internet access? Skype user to Skype user calls are free.
