Among the faint blue halo stars the sdO's form a group whose evolutionary status is still not fully understood. Phenomenologically they appear to be related to the horizontal branch. The knowledge of stellar parameters and abundances may give a clue for understanding their evolutionary status. As the sdO's are hot (Teff ≥ 35000K), the assumption of LTE leads to substantial errors. Hence detailed NLTE analyses are inevitable.
