Hello I got a confirmation from HR at Shell that I have been selected for a role and there will be background checks before joining the company. He said the mail will come from a 3rd party vendor for the background verification. It has been 1 week and there has been no mails till now. Is it normal? Should I follow up with the HR again?

Talk to your First Sgt
Man up take it from him and don’t say another word
Don’t be the one with the secret.
Every command is a culture unto itself. Who does this person respect within your unit? Is there a Staff Sgt you can talk to? A Chaplin is a secondary option.
If the Staff Sgt or Chaplin don’t work then take it to the First.
I think you should have handled this differently. You could have asked him to talk in private so you could discuss the issue away from other squadmates. That way he would have felt heard and understood, and you could have better explained why it was important to follow the rules.
