Can non infantry mos wear expert infantry badge?
With few exceptions, no. If you earn the EIB (or CIB) as an infantryman, then you reclass to another MOS, you can still wear it. If you earn the EIB as a non-11 series MOS, then reclass to infantry, you should be eligible to wear it. If you test for it as a non-11 Series, and never reclass to infantry, you can't wear it, even if you complete the testing. However, if you do complete the testing, you should be able to use the points towards promotion.

What is the US Army's expert infantry medal?
It's the Expert Infantry Badge (not medal). Infantry soldiers are tested on a series of 40 (if I remember correctly) tasks... if they complete those 40 tasks, plus the physical fitness test and a 12 mile road march, they get awarded their EIB. It's a Category I badge, and those were worth 15 promotion points when I went to the E5 board years ago... the promotion points system might not be the same now as it was then. You're only authorized to wear it if you have an 11 (Infantry) or 18 (Special Forces) series MOS - although persons outside of those occupations may go through EIB testing, they won't be authorized to wear the EIB if they successfully complete the testing, although the points can be counted towards promotion - I could never wear the EIB, but I got the 15 promotion points credited to me at my E5 board.
