He was also noted for the number of officers who had gone on to outstanding careers after serving under him, including future Captain Daniel Okagawa and future Commodore Diego Reyes.

Among his personal characteristics was a fondness for Dramian weed tea. (SCE eBook: Distant Early Warning)

When Lieutenant Gabriel Lorca grew restless after serving as security chief for three years, his captain and mentor Matuzas suggested a billet at OT-4 on Tarsus IV. Lorca accepted, which earned him a promotion to lieutenant commander. (DSC novel: Drastic Measures)
