We will provide evidence in support of the theory that the infrared cluster, AFGL 6366s, of young stellar objects contains a class B2 star, and that this object is the source of the ionization of the H II region and for the powering of the bipolar molecular outflow. This study was done in the near infrared. Broadband images of AFGL 6366s at wavelengths of J(1.25 \mu m), H(1.65 \mu m), K(2.23 \mu m), and 3.3(3.26 \mu m) as well as narrow band CVF images for Br\gamma (n = 7 \to 4 , 2.166 \mu m), 3.29\mu m and 3.4\mu m unidentified feature emission (UIR lines) are provided.
