With some wiggle room, it can still take place before 1995. Pierce didn't say he promoted Fury to Director, he said "That photo was taken five years after Nick and I met, when I was at State Department in Bogota. E.L.N. rebels took the embassy, and security got me out, but the rebels took hostages. Nick was Deputy Chief of the S.H.I.E.L.D. station there, and he comes to me with a plan. He wants to storm the building through the sewers. I said, "No, we'll negotiate." Turned out, the E.L.N. didn't negotiate, so they put out a kill order. They stormed the basement, and what do they find? They find it empty. Nick had ignored my direct order, and carried out an unauthorized military operation on foreign soil, and saved the lives of a dozen political officers, including my daughter. So you gave him a promotion." Basically, you take away that overall he was still an agent but at that Bogota station he was deputy chief. Then for the promotion, he was reassigned and seems to wherever like the LA Field Office doing threat assessment. As for the photo, yeah, just write off as he was bald before 1995 and the photo added 20 years.
