Depends on what it is about. Again using my Dad's old military papers as a reference: Almost all of them used name and rank, but there was one which was a transcript of a military inquiry held because an officer who had been a friend of my Dad's had been messing around with a German luger which the officer thought was unloaded and had ended up shooting himself in the hand (what a dummy!). My Dad had been present when this incident occurred and several times the document just referred to him as "Wilson" when talking about his statements.
