You realize that Patton's quote about fixed fortifications does not apply to dragon's teeth which are not actually fixed. He was more addressing the Maginot line and other such fixed defensive permanent positions.

It's funny to say they're not fixed when they're still here 70 years after having been laid.

The ones near me even have a little plaque describing the date on which they were laid.
