His family von Bülow belonged to German aristocracy. His parents separated soon after he was born, his mother died when he was six. Von Bülow and his brother grew up in Berlin with their grandmother.

He was deployed to the Eastern Front for three years, serving as First Lieutenant of ''Panzergrenadierregiment'' 3〔 in the 3rd Panzer Division. Asked during an interview later in his life if he had been a good lieutenant he answered: "Not good enough, otherwise I would have been part of the resistance on July 20th, 1944. But for this dreadful German contribution to world history, I will be ashamed for the rest of my life."〔""〕〔(June 2002 interview ) with the ''Süddeutsche Zeitung''〕 He completed his ''Abitur'' in 1946. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vicco von Bülow」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
