Still sorta fuzzy on the rules:  Now that I've chosen warrior as a profession, do I also add those skill/trait point bonuses (p. 44, i.e, Awareness + 2, Spear +2, Cultural weapon +3, etc.)?

Army: This represents potential resources you may call on. Most of these folks have positions elsewhere, and their own responsibilities, so they are not at your beacon call. However, if the matter were serious enough, you could convince them to come.

Old Warriors: 1d6-5
Middle-aged Warriors: 1d6-2
Young Warriors: 1d6+ 1
Other Kinsmen: 3d6+5
Thralls: 5d20

Depending on your background, they may have even come with you to Britain.

Old warriors roll: -4, so I guess none.
Middle-aged warriors roll:  4
Young warriors roll:  4
Other kinsmen roll:  12
Thralls roll:  30

No, those bonuses apply to things gained by your father's profession. The next section in the rules talks about what profession you qualify for, based on your skills and attributes. This would be what you are known as among the Northmen, how you could make your living. It's under Section 9, page 48-49. You need those skills, traits and such to call yourself (and be accepted as) on of those professions.

Is that your password or are you just impatient for Valhalla?  ;)

Note:  I forgot to add Arne's trait modifiers for his religious background (Freya) during initial character creation. 

Changes have been made to online character sheet.
