Bourque is such a common Family name in the Acadiana parishes in Louisiana.

Yes it is, probably a decendant from NS Acadians as like many of the Acadians in South Louisiana.

Making an assumption Teche must be for Bayou Teche

This is not his father. This is a relative of his. His father is Alfred A. Bourque.

And it appears Alan’s mom passed away in 2019

:
“Lucille's family was what was most important to her in her life. ... Lucille was predeceased by her husband of 41 years, Alfred A. Bourque, in 1989, and their son, Alan R. Bourque.“

I recently submitted a potential match via Namus to this John Doe, who was found with a USMC (Marine Corps) shirt... I don't know for sure that Alan was reporting for marine Corps Duty but the resemblance and circumstances look possible:

It looks like he was Air Force - but interesting that he was last known to be transferring between Lackland AFB (San Antonio, TX) and Keesler because the John Doe recovery location, Houston TX, is right in the middle.
