Correct.
Middle names had started to become more or less official by World War I, when the U.S. enlistment form became the first official government document to include a space for them.

About middle name, I had heard before computers. That
Harry S Truman did not have a middle name and some said that was not true and i just let it go. This reminded me of that so I checked what the “S” stood for and come to find out I was correct.
