Why don't we have AFRTS radio and TV service set up for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan?

When I was overseas, everywhere we had troops we had the American Forces Radio and Television Service, providing radio and TV for the troops in the trenches. Our work place just participated in "Operation DVD", collecting CD's and DVD's for the troops in the sandbox because they don't have AFRTS there. Why in the world is that? I mean, even in the Korean War, AFRTS Radio Vagabond broadcasted music news and information to the troops in the field from a PANEL TRUCK! How hard can this be? I am sure it would go a long way towards building up morale. Remember "Good Morning Vietnam"? Why can't they have "Good Morning Iraq?" They sure deserve it.
