Troops overseas won't see 'Buffalo Soldiers' movie on bases
The people who pick the movies shown on military posts, though, say it has nothing to do with the film’s acidic depiction of the peacetime Army, where a bored soldier endures the last gasps of the Cold War by swiping supplies and hawking them on the black market.

Instead, military distributors say the film’s run is just too small.

3. Preventive measures
Probably just don't want to give anyone ideas for off-duty entrepreneurial adventures.
