Jacket identification with art?

Anyone know a good image-based search format? (not Google lens).

This is a non-ID'd jacket, probably Colvinex, with 5th AF painted on the left shoulder. There are 2 circular stitch patterns located on the right shoulder where patches likely once were.

I was hoping to ID the jacket, at least to squadron or group, using the art.

I imagine this is known, but all I find online is a black and white .PDF from a 40s publication that identifies squadrons/groups/air forces, provides their general histories and patch images ... but little else. Alternately, some squadrons have commemorative websites ... but that feels like searching for a needle in a haystack (tho I'm there now ).

... probably a pie-in-the-sky question, but thought I'd ask ...
