Charlie,
This sailor was a carpenter's mate. My guess is that he was instrumental in repairing the ship after it was hit in late 1940 by a torpedo from HMS Clyde. For this, he awarded the EK.
There is nothing else that he could have done I think in this time period to be considered for this award since the ship was out of action due to this damage until Jan 41.
A carpenter's mate is usually assigned to a damage control team.
