Would TIME do a Photo Op of Mother in Military Fatigueswith Breast Pump trying to Send Milk to Baby

I was thinking about when the MSM used to do stories about the Military Women who had to go to Iraq or then Afghanistan...and how they had both signed up to Military for benefits and that Husband had been called and now the Mother was called for her duty. The kids were left in care of Grandparents or family. There were many stories about this on old DU.

What I'm wondering is why "TIME" didn't do a photo op of a Mother who was called to go to either Iraq or Afghanistan leaving a kid she was breastfeading and how SHE COPED?

What if she tried to use a Breat Pump and send her Milk back to her child? What if it was important enough that our Military could Express Ship that Milk back and that TIME would do a photo op of how difficult that might have been for this female serving in our Wars to try to keep that connection between her and her young child...by providing the breast milk that would continue the bond.

I know this seems "off the wall" but many young folks signed up to Military for Benefits and future College training...and yet still had families (our jobs have been going overseas for decades now) and these young people had kids...and signed up and were called and yet they had to leave their kids with a bottle and processed milk/formula and NO MSM..(that I've seen) EVER did a PHOTO OP of those WOMEN and THEIR CHILDREN?

WHY?

(ON EDIT) SOME FOLKS MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND what I'm referencing in this post. It's about This:
