A few characters are grabbed roughly by others, their arms held tightly so they can't get away, etc., but it's generally pretty brief and nothing much comes of it

Not on screen, but it's revealed by one character that during the war, his friend's plane was hit and caught fire; it's implied that the friend was unable to escape, and died

A couple scenes inside planes MAY feel claustrophobic if you are especially sensitive to it

A character who lost his hands is sometimes treated as though he is incapable of completing certain tasks, but he usually proves this to be untrue
However, this treatment (and the few situations where he can't rely on himself) are very upsetting to him, and sometimes lead him to assert that he's as helpless and dependent as a baby
But, the film itself portrays his disability with nuance, and he eventually overcomes the idea that his occasional need for help makes him a burden/weak

Both.
One of the characters is known to have regular flashbacks/nightmares about the war
He is told to "snap out of it already" at one point, but is also consoled in another scene
