During one of those week long exercises back in the 70s (High Wood, I think) we all had questionnaires. One question asked how you were feeling, on an hour to hour basis. One of the possible responses was "lethargic, bored", which was much used. Thereafter the phrase entered common squadron usage, as in "how are you today?" - "lethargic, bored!"
