Francis R. Mitchell is an retired United States Air Force Chief Master Sergeant (CMSgt). Born September 2, 1950 in Baltimore, Maryland, he was educated in Baltimore City Schools before entering the Air Force on June 26, 1969. While assigned to the Pentagon, Washington, D.C., he was selected to service an additional year over 30 years of service, to assist in completing the Career Enlisted Aviator Incentive Program (CEFIP). CEFIP was the first time ever that enlisted crewmembers across the services were compensated under the same program guidance (Gate System) as the rated officers (Pilots, Navigators, Air Battle Managers).
