  We investigate various aspects of a proposal by Aharony and Kutasov
arXiv:0803.3547 [hep-th] for the gravity dual of an open Wilson line in the
Sakai-Sugimoto model or its non-compact version. In particular, we use their
proposal to determine the effect of finite temperature, as well as background
electric and magnetic fields, on the chiral symmetry breaking order parameter.
We also generalize their prescription to more complicated worldsheets and
identify the operators dual to such worldsheets.
