Does 3PO know Anakin is Darth Vader?

I believe that Darth Vader knew about C3PO but didn't want to say anything because it's in the past for him and he simply doesn't want to think about that. C3P0 didn't know about Vader being Anakin (and R2D2) because their memories were deleted sooner or later after the Jedi Purge, getting new masters and jobs.

Leia was not using the Force or was currently Force-sensitive during her confrontation with Vader. She began training as a Jedi years later.
