He was appointed to the submarine C 13, additional, on 27 May, 1909. He left on 1 March, 1910 to take command of the submarine A 7. Successively, he was placed in command of B 1 on 8 August, 1910 and C 16 on 5 January, 1911.

A year and a half in command of G 2 followed, then a year in L 1.[4]

Darke was promoted to the rank of Commander on 31 December, 1918.[5]

Post-War

Darke was appointed in command of the minesweeper Ross in November, 1919. He remained in her until being superseded on 15 November, 1923.[6]

Darke was promoted to the rank of Captain on 30 June, 1926.[7]

Darke took Lucia from Malta with her five "L" class submarines of Second Submarine Flotilla on 26 October, 1926, the formation was expected back in Devonport on 7 November. The boats then fell under command of Rear-Admiral (S).[8] In December, 1926, Darke was appointed in command of the light cruiser Conquest.
