Based on observations made between June 11 and June 14, 1985 with the 3.6-m ESO telescope CASPEC spectrograph, oxygen abundances in NGC 6397 and NGC 6752 HB stars were determined to check the results from their red giants. The IR triplet at 7772-7775 A found for HD 86986 is in good agreement with previous findings. The results show oxygen abundances spanning a range of a factor of six in this star sample, with the most oxygen-poor star being relatively iron rich.
