However, on 10 December 1914, H.M.S. Cygnet was damaged when she collided while entering Felixstowe Dock. Though Bake was merely cautioned in this instance, in March 1915 he collided with S.S. Brighton Queen and for this he was superseded in command and sent to the first class protected cruiser H.M.S. Powerful where he assumed gunnery duties. On 17 June 1916, he was appointed to H.M.S. Theseus, again for gunnery duties. Advanced Lieutenant-Commander on 31 December 1916, he was superseded on 31 December 1917. Bake was appointed in command of the destroyer H.M.S.

On 1 October 1920, Bake was appointed to the drill ship President, for service in the Admiralty Compass Department as an Assistant, 1st Class and Establishment Officer. From March 1924, Bake alternated between having charge of a group of destroyers in reserve and unpaid time, before being placed on the Retired List at his own request with the rank of Commander on 1 June 1927. Recalled for service during the Second World War, he was appointed as Sea Transport Officer, Newhaven, on 4 September 1939 before an appointment as District Sea Transport Officer, Barrow-in-Furness with acting rank of Captain on 19 June 1941. Bake was appointed as District Sea Transport Officer, Iceland (C) with acting rank of Captain on 19 August 1941. He was ordered to return to Portsmouth on 19 January 1942. On 2 March, 1942, Bake was ordered to proceed in H.M.S. Stag to Alexandria, becoming District Sea Transport Officer, Egypt on 22 April 1942. On 2 May 1942, however, Bake was placed on the seriously ill list with malaria. He recovered and was removed from the list eight days later. On 10 May 1944 he was appointed to H.M.S. Stag as N.C.S.O., Suez, and afterwards served in a variety of similar capacities through to the end of the hostilities, including as Naval Chief Staff Officer on staff of Flag Officer, Levant and Eastern Mediterranean. He was retired to the Emergency List on 16 March 1947. Orrell Bake died aged 91, at Lewes, Sussex, during the first quarter of 1978. Sold with copy service records.

Northesk in the Mediterranean and at Sebastapol during the evacuation of the Crimea during the Russian Civil War. Appointed Engineer Commander on 31 December 1920, he was placed on the Retired List at his own request on 25 July 1922. Recalled for Second World War service on 12 January 1940, he served in the U.K. as an officer at Lincoln until 12 February 1944, when his appointment was terminated and he returned to the Retired List the following day. He died, aged 74, in Exmouth, Devonshire, on 18 September 1956. Sold with copy service record.
