We exhibit the superHiggs effect in heterotic string theory by turning on a
background NS-NS field and deforming the BRST operator consistent with
superconformal invariance. The NS-NS field spontaneously breaks spacetime
supersymmetry. We show how the gravitini and the physical dilatini gain mass by
eating the would-be Goldstone fermions.
