A contractor from an old job once told me about a family member who had what he called a “Q” level security clearance because of what his job in the military was. According to him, it was the absolute highest clearance a person can have. This was way before I knew anything about Q and the Anons… Can anyone confirm this to be true? I’ve been thinking about this a lot and how it could connect to all of this.

Yes, this is a real thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_clearance
Is it truly the top level security clearance? Probably not, but it's up there.
I believe it is the highest:
"Anyone possessing an active Q clearance is always categorized as holding a National Security Critical-Sensitive position (sensitivity Level 3).[3] Additionally, most Q-cleared incumbents will have collateral responsibilities designating them as Level 4: National Security Special-Sensitive personnel.[4] With these two designations standing as the highest-risk sensitivity levels, occupants of these positions hold extraordinary accountability, having the potential to cause "exceptionally grave" or "inestimable" damage to the national security of the United States.[5]"
Well, it's the highest security level the public is aware of.
