We present images and spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of massive youngstellar objects (YSOs) in three star-forming H II regions of the LargeMagellanic Cloud: N159A, N159 Papillon, and N160. We use photometry fromSOFIA/FORCAST at 25.3--37.1 um to constrain model fits to the SEDs anddetermine luminosities, ages, and dust content of the embedded YSOs and theirlocal environments. By placing these sources on mid-infrared color-magnitudeand color-color diagrams, we analyze their dust properties and consider theirevolutionary status. Since each object in the FORCAST images has an obviousbright near-infrared counterpart in Spitzer Space Telescope images, we do notfind any evidence for new, very cool, previously-undiscovered Class 0 YSOs.Additionally, based on its mid-infrared colors and model parameters, N159A isyounger than N160 and the Papillon. The nature of the first extragalacticprotostars in N159, P1 and P2, is also discussed.
