We examine eight young stellar objects in the OMC-2 star forming region basedon observations from the SOFIA/FORCAST early science phase, the Spitzer SpaceTelescope, the Herschel Space Observatory, 2MASS, APEX, and other results inthe literature. We show the spectral energy distributions of these objects fromnear-infrared to millimeter wavelengths, and compare the SEDs with those ofsheet collapse models of protostars and circumstellar disks. Four of theobjects can be modelled as protostars with infalling envelopes, two as youngstars surrounded by disks, and the remaining two objects have double-peakedSEDs. We model the double-peaked sources as binaries containing a young starwith a disk and a protostar. The six most luminous sources are found in a densegroup within a 0.15 x 0.25 pc region; these sources have luminosities rangingfrom 300 L_sun to 20 L_sun. The most embedded source (OMC-2 FIR 4) can be fitby a class 0 protostar model having a luminosity of ~50 L_sun and mass infallrate of ~10^-4 solar masses per year.
