It seems very probable that young, luminous B stars occur in the galactic halo. An origin in the disc followed by ejection may account for many of these stars; certain proposed formation-ejection mechanisms involve the infall of halo material. The kinematics and supposed locations of some halo B stars seem incompatible with an origin in the disc, suggesting that these stars may have formed in the halo.
